Production series[]
There are two variants of the Giraffe. The first one is based on the rather unique Schienenzeppelin. This was an experimental engine which looked a little like a Zeppelin airship. It was powered by a pushing propeller. Only a single model was built. The 2nd variant was based on the more mainstream DRG Series 61.
