The presented BR 57 locomotive was created by modifying the G10 steam locomotives, and the main change was to add armor plates protecting, first of all, the cabin and the steam locomotive's boiler. Of course, this led to an increase in the weight of the locomotive and a reduction in its maximum speed. At the same time, however, its resistance to small arms fire has significantly increased.
