Reply to "Who made this 4-6-0 brass locomotive ?"

I have just received that little loco, impulse buy on the bay in Germany.  It needs a total restoration which is not a problem, it is a two rail model. The pictures where bad quality and I was thinking maybe made in Japan in the fifties but after receiving it... I do not know.

Classic DC motor from the fifties, heavy piece all made of brass, very well done and smooth running. Wheels are steel models. One thing that look strange for me is the cab windows, original or not ?  All of this is in need of a total rebuilt and will be a nice project for the upcoming weeks.

Is it a model of a real locomotive or a freelance one ?  Many thanks for any suggestion. Daniel

When I was in Germany years ago, I went to a train/hobby shop in Hamburg and they had many of these type of engines. If I remember correctly the owner told me there was a small a few manufactures post war and some pre-war.
