About DR V15 (BR 102) by Tilman D.
The DR V 15 were diesel locomotives of the "Deutsche Reichsbahn" for light shunting service. The locomotives were also supplied to industrial companies.
My locomotive is a copy of the V15 which is located in the Leipzig Railway Museum and is still in working order. The rods and wheels are 3D printed by BricksOnRails.
Two circuit cube motors geared 1:1 allow only slow speed but a good power for a shunting loco.
