"The Class 103 - Stars of the Railroad".
In order to increase speeds in passenger train service, the German Federal Railroad developed the class E03 in the 1960s. The pre-production locomotives E03 001 to E03 004 were available from 1965. These locomotives, designated 103 001 to 103 004 from 1968 onward, differed from the production machines built from 1970 onward in several details. Externally, the second row of fans on the series locomotives was very noticeable. The main area of use for the beige/red painted locomotives was TEE as well as IC/EC traffic.
From 1987 onwards, the locomotives were gradually painted in the orient red color scheme, with various design versions being used. In 1997, the star of the former "star locomotives" of the DB began to decline. They were replaced by the BR 101. In 2003, their scheduled use in train service ended, but the locomotives 103 001, 103 113 and 103 245, which are subordinate to the DB Museum, are still used sporadically.
The new Arnold model in detail:
-Frame made of metal injection molding, housing also made of high quality plastic.
