'Europa' is a freestyle model of  a typical European narrow gauge 0-6-0 tank locomotive, similar to those built by Henschel, Orenstein and Koppel.

Radio control for speed and direction is standard; the battery box for the locomotive is conveniently situated between the frames behind the rear axle.

The cab roof lifts up to give access to gas filler, boiler water filler and the lubricator filler. The boiler has a water level check valve. With the overflow piped away below the frames, the lubricator is fitted with an under floor drain tap. These features enable the loco to be serviced easily and help keep the cab free from excess oil and water.

The body is constructed from etched brass and is detailed with brass castings, and it captures well the flavour of a European narrow gauge locomotive.
