DE2500/BR202 DB (Henschel) N XL L M4

The DB Class 202, also commonly referred to under its manufacturers' designation Henschel-BBC DE2500, since it was only in experimental use and never purchased by the DB, is a class of diesel-electric locomotives designed for use on main and secondary lines for both passenger and freight trains.

DE2500/BR202 DB (MAN) N XL L M4

The DB Class 202, also commonly referred to under its manufacturers' designation Henschel-BBC DE2500, since it was only in experimental use and never purchased by the DB, is a class of diesel-electric locomotives designed for use on main and secondary lines for both passenger and freight trains.

DE2700/ Di6/ ME26 N XL L M4

Based on the diesel-electric series DE 1024 with three-phase power transmission, MaK and Siemens developed the Di6 for the Norwegian State Railways NSB. The MaK 12M282 diesel engine developed 2650 kW at 1000 rpm and generated the power for the six traction motors. Since the locomotive with its top speed of 160 km/h was also to be used in heavy passenger train service, it was fitted with a train heating system. The twelve locomotives had various problems, two locomotives burned out. After more…

DR V100 N XL L M4

The dieselhydraulic V100 (1968 BR 110 – 115, ab 1992 BR 201 – 204, 293) had been developed by VEB Lokomotivbau „Karl Marx“ for GDR state railway DR for multi purpose service on main and branch lines. The traction motors delivered 1000 HP at 1500 rpm and enabled the loco to reach a maximum speed of 100 km/h. The turbocharged engine 12 KVD 21 SVW is similar to the motor of V180/V100.

DRG DB 701 407/408 N XL L M4

The German Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft DRG ordered six samples of electric driven tower cars for maintainance of catenary between 1929 and 1933. The vehicles delivered 105 kW and reached a maximum speed of 65 km/h if driven full electric under wire. During work at catenary the traction motor was powered by batteries.

DSB ME N XL L M4

Between 1981 and 1985 the Danish State Railways DSB purchased 37 units of the diesel-electric series ME from the consortium Henschel, BBC, Scandia. Due to the positive experience with American drive technology, the 2427 kW (at 900 rpm) 16-cylinder two-stroke engine 16-645 E3B from EMD was chosen as the diesel engine, which generates the energy for the six traction motors. With a top speed of 175 km/h, the six-axle vehicles equipped with push-pull and multiple traction control were initially more…

DSB MO (Frichs 6185CA) N XL L M4

Between 1935 and 1955, the Danish State Railways (DSB) placed 139 examples of the MO diesel-electric multiple unit into service in several series. Manufactured by Scandia, the vehicles featured two Frichs 6185CA six-cylinder diesel engines, each with a combined output of 368 kW (at 1000 RPM), mounted above the three-axle bogie and generating power for the two electric traction motors mounted in the two-axle power bogie. The multiple units were equipped with multiple-traction and push-pull more…

DSB MX (II) N XL L M4


After the Second World War, various European locomotive manufacturers began developing diesel-electric locomotives, which began to displace steam traction in the USA. In Sweden, Nydqvist and Holm AB (NoHAB) acquired the license to manufacture diesel locomotives for the Electro-Motive Division (EMD) in 1949. The Americans owned an export version of the F-series, which had a driver's cab at both ends. For the lighter superstructure in Europe, locos were equipped qith six instead of four axles. more…
