Hello, Jonty...

IMO German railways are boring. All their steam locos look the same!
I resent that! Aside from German "same" looking better than most British steam ( ), Germany was once known for a large number of unusual locomotives. I suppose most of that variety was swept away, leaving the majority of locomotives that lasted to the preservation era to be later and/or common designs. You're in a country with an interesting, torturous railway history.
