Key Features:

The Type 50 was prominent in 1939, but by 1941, the military demanded a simplified structure, giving rise to the Type 52 locomotive. Known for its excellent performance and cost-effectiveness, the Type 52 became a vital asset.
- Structural Features: The Type 52 locomotive boasts a wheel axle load of 15 tons and a top speed of 80 km/h. Its simplified design not only met military requirements but also conserved materials, work hours, and financial resources.

Understanding Scale
The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.
