Very tactful.

When I saw the thread title I must admit that I thought the words "beautiful", "steam" and "German" do not normally go in the same sentence.

I am still of that opinion.  Teutonic, yes, distinctive, certainly. Beautiful????

Beauty certainly is in the eye of the beholder.

 

What about this one?

I like it. It is called "The Beauty from Wurtemberg" and modelled a.o. by Märklin and Roco:

 

 

For many more pictures of other beautiful continental European Pacific locomotives see my (free to download or read)  e-book on that subject: http://sncf231e.nl/pacificseu/

 

Which does not mean I do not like the A3 or A4: http://sncf231e.nl/lner-pacifics-and-nyc-hudsons/

I have a very broad (and well bred) taste

Hi Fred,

Bravo, me too!

 I simply love most railways and the trains that run on them, I understand that I have “catholic” tastes, or so I was told a long time ago. 
Like with music and women, I like all kinds as variety is the spice of life.

In order to not be too controversial, back to railways - I can see the beauty in everything from a Midland railway Spinner to a Gresley Pacific and from them to a New Haven streamlined 4-6-4 or an EMD E unit, alternatively to a Golsdorf 2-8-4 to a CSD 4-8-2 to a Chapelon 4-8-0 or a Bavarian 4-4-4!

They’re all beautiful.
