Info about the original
The great demand for manoeuvring locomotives combined with the commencing structural changes led the German Federal Railway to develop the V60 range. Over the next eight years, the first prototype from in 1955 was followed by 941 more locomotives. Their reliability and robustness helped the last newly developed rod diesel locomotive of Deutsche Bahn to achieve a real cult status and made them indispensable at many railway stations or in the field of freight services, even to this present day.
