    Original Third Reich Deutsche Reichsbahn Train Engine Plaque #2

    Original Third Reich Deutsche Reichsbahn Train Engine Plaque

    Original Third Reich Deutsche Reichsbahn train engine plaque. These were mounted above a railroad eagle, or/and the engine’s designation number, on the side of WWII German train engines. Made from an alluminium alloy metal, painted black with raised brushed metal, or white painted lettering which says “Deutsche Reichsbahn”, there are six drilled holes where the bolts would have secured it to the engine.
    There has been debate as to the ‘thickness’ of Third Reich period engine plates as opposed to those manufactured post war, with the war produced plaques measuring about 3-4mm thick and post war ones from about 5-6.5mm in thickness, this original war time plaque is in the 3-3.5mm range.
    This fabulous train plaque has belonged to one of our colectors for over 50 years, it is in totally original condition and without any restoration, it has been simply boxed and stored away.
    This amazing DR plaque retains four of the original bolts (hexagonal bolt heads only) which secured it to the train engine superstructure, the plaque having been literally cut off the train. But thats not all, the Deutsche Reichsbahn letters are heavily encrusted with thick, solidified black soot from the engine stack, the letters themselves which are the brushed metal type, are dirty and grubby looking. Unfortunately we don’t know the train engine number but it must have been an extremely hard working beast. A totally superb piece in completely original, untouched condition.

    These Third Reich Deutsche Reichsbahn engine plaques are becoming very scarce, with one at recent auction fetching upwards of £1,000. So here is a great opportunity to catch a super original example, an amazing historical and future investment piece.

    DEUTSCHE REICHSBAHN ADLER, 27″ (68cm) TRAIN EAGLE BY ‘PS’, LOK 680

    DEUTSCHE REICHSBAHN ADLER, 27″ (68cm) TRAIN EAGLE BY ‘PS’ LOK 680

    A fabulous Original Deutsche Reichsbahn train eagle (Adler) manufactured by ‘PS’. Uncleaned and unpolished, it looks quite spectacular, in most occasions these eagles have been polished to within inches of their lives, which of course removes all that fabulous patina and history, this one is quite ‘dusty’ looking, and with lots of dark areas in creases, pits and crevasses within the design, could be soot, or paint, but it is part of it’s history. This Eagle still has all of its threaded posts on the back which are uncut, and all the same size, 1,3/8″ (3cm) along with two of its original nuts. It is a 27 inch wing span version, but actually measures  out, tip to tip, at 27,1/4″ (69.2cm), and 13,7/8″ (35.2cm) form the top of the head to the bottom of the wreathed swastika. The detail is amazing overall, with a superb wing feather structure, and wreathed swastika, the eagle’s beak is pinpoint sharp! The reverse carries all the identifiers, including maker mark, which is an impressed circle with a ‘P’ above an ‘S’, this manufacturer is still quite elusive as even after considerable research the actual factory hasn’t become clear, further marks are for the eagle size ‘LOK 680’, metal element compounds ‘GAL-Mg-Si’ (Galvanized Aluminum, Magnesium and Silicone), and then to the center is   ‘LOK’ over ‘RZA 5’, over ‘BLN’.
    A superb example of an original DR Eagle, becoming very hard to find in original condition, an absolute must have for the Deutsche Reichsbahn or Third Reich collector, no collection is complete without one of these!
