Dear Fred,
it seems to me that Mr. Heinen wanted to built a Baden State Railway Class IId in DRG Livery.
Probably IId Nr. 745 would have been DRG 14 451, but it was scrapped before being renumbered.
See: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badische_II_d (German Language)

Yes, due to the use of Fleischmann parts of the time. Wrong Wheels, wrong tender...
But at least the body of the engine is pretty close to the prototype. A removal of the high coal bunker combined with wheels and outside gear of Liliput bad. IVh/BR 18.3 (and a new scratchbuild frame?) will make a very nice model of this IMHO most beautiful german engine (o.k. the smokestack of the second batch is nicknamed "flowerpot" and rather ugly..)
Kind regards
Michael
