Novelty 2024: The BR 03 steam locomotive appears as an authentic model in the DB Era III version. As with the original, the model has four large leading wheels, harmonious lamps as well as a matching frame and a true-to-original replica of the scissor brakes. The external impression is rounded off by the sharply contoured printing and the short locomotive plate. The model comes with a matching PSD XP sound decoder as well as digitally switchable lighting in the chassis and driver's cab areas. In addition, a red flickering LED in the area of the firebox can be switched digitally. The model bears the quality mark "fits mfx®". In order to make digital decoders reliable for all users of the current Märklin digital control centers, a new quality mark “fits mfx®” was introduced together with M.
