DR Rügen Steam Locomotive,
994633
THE PROTOTYPE
Between 1913 and 1925, the Vul-
can Locomotive Works built three
locomotives for the Rügenschen
Kleinbahnen (Rügen Local Rail-
ways) on the Baltic island of
Rügen. When most private rail-
ways in East Germany were
taken over by the government in
1949, the powerful locos became
99 4631 through 99 4633 of the
German Railways (DR). Today,
two of these locomotives continue
to pull passenger trains through
the picturesque fields and forests
of Rügen.

OPERATION
Preparation
Attention! To prevent staining
during shipping, the external drive
linkages on your new LGB loco-
motive were not lubricated at the
factory. For best operation, lubri-
cate the drive linkages—including
sliding surfaces, valve guides and
drive rod ends—with a small
amount of LGB Maintenance Oil
(50019). A small supply of LGB
Maintenance Oil is included.
Operating Modes
This model has a three-way
power control switch mounted
inside the cab (Fig. 1, 2):
Position 0: All power off
Position 1: Power to lights and
smoke generator
Position 2: Power to lights, smoke
generator and motor
(factory pre-set)
Position 3: Same as 2
Attention! This model is equip-
ped with a starting delay circuit.
Do not connect this model to
other loco models with different
starting characteristics. This can
damage the internal gearing.
Multi-Train System
This model has a direct decoder
interface. It can be equipped with
an LGB Multi-Train System Deco-
der (55020). The Decoder Interfa-
ce Cable (55026) is not required.
We strongly recommend decoder
installation by an LGB service
station. For more information,
contact your authorized LGB
retailer or an LGB service station
(see Authorized Service).
Hint: If this model is decoder
equipped, the digital/analog DIP
switches will be set to OFF.
Lighting
This model features directional
lighting. It has a „flat" multi-purpo-
se socket, with a removable
cover, on the rear of the cab (Fig.
5). This socket can be used to
provide track power to cars with
lighting or sound electronics.
To remove the cover of the
socket, pull it straight out. If the
cover is tight, gently use a small
straight screwdriver to pry it out.
(Do not pull out the rectangular
outer housing.)
If your cars have the older,
„round" lighting connectors, use
the Light Socket Adapter (68334).
Smoke Generator
This model is equipped with a
smoke generator. A small supply
of LGB Smoke and Cleaning
Fluid is included with this model.
For best operation, fill the genera-
tor halfway with fluid. If the gene-
rator is overfilled, it will not con-
vert the fluid into smoke.
Attention! Only use LGB Smoke
and Cleaning Fluid (50010).
