DRG Baureihe 58-311 / Prussian G12
Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft BR 58-311.
I've prepared a DRG black edition of the G12 renamed to Baureihe 58 for Bricks-On-Rails.de. This one is powered by a LEGO Power Functions L motor and a LEGO IR receiver plus battery box. It's also possible to use the Powered Up System.
The valve gear is slightly less complicated and instead of antennas I've used rigid hose for the boiler railing.

About the Locomotive:
The G12 (later Baureihe 58) was developed during the Great War. From a servicing and maintenance point of view, it was a great disadvantage for each German state railway to have its own locomotive classes with no standardization. Even spare parts for locos of the same class often did not fit their sister locos. This fuelled the desire for a standardized, fast and powerfull goods locomotive.
The result was the G12, a 1’E 2-10-0 goods train locomotive. Between 1917 and 1924 approximately 1490 copies were build. With 1.520 HP and a top speed of 65 km/h the G12 was capable of pulling big goods trains.
