Danish Diesel Dwarf - In the 1950s the Danish State Railways also purchased 40 small diesel locomotives to replace aged steam switch engines. These diesels were based on the Small Locomotive Motive Power Group II known in Germany as Kof II. The superstructures for these switching dwarfs in Denmark were given a basic paint scheme of orange later in their service lives. These locomotives provided a lively color accent in daily railroading with this warning color.

The Specialist for Steep Grades - Originally, the 10 units of the class 85 three-cylinder, heavy tank locomotive placed into service were built for the Hallentalbahn (Hell's Valley Railroad) in the Black Forest. This line was initially run with expensive and time-consuming rack railroad technology. The massive class 85 locomotives were able to negotiate this difficult line with the more economical adhesion operation. They gave excellent results there up to the conversion to electric motive power. Afterwards a number of these athletic units took up service on other steeply graded routes in Germany such as Erkrath-Hochdahl.

Indispensable New Construction Classics - It was almost believed that all of the new construction locomotives from the early German Federal Railroad period would be completely displaced by the German Railroad, Inc.'s new, current purchases. Then it turned out that the proven class 111 units could hold their own quite well in modern, daily railroad operations after being overhauled technically and repainted. Now, these new construction classis from the economic miracle years will certainly be a part of the DB AG's motive power for years to come.




37362 H0 Digital SBB cl Ae 6/6 Electric Locomotive

Prototype: 2 Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) class Ae 6/6 electric locomotives, one in the original green paint scheme as first delivered in 1955, Era III, with the locomotive name "Schwyz", one as the locomotives currently look in 2005 with a "traffic red" paint scheme, Era V, with the locomotive name "Langnau i.E.".

Two Anniversary Celebrants Paired Together - In 1955, the success story began for the 297 units of the class Ae 6/6 electric locomotive delivered to the Swiss Federal Railways. They quickly proved themselves, particularly on the Gotthard line, as the ideal motive power for hauling ever growing train loads at a brisk pace up the grades, because the "slowly creeping" Crocodiles took too long to negotiate this line. The attractive looking and speedy "Ae 6/6 power houses" quickly replaced Crocodiles and many locomotives with pilot trucks especially on steeply graded main lines. The newest locomotives have only started displacing the Ae 6/6 in the recent past from the latter's regular lines. Since then you can see these 50 year old anniversary celebrants almost exclusively in the middle of Switzerland on the point of heavy freight trains.
