A little history:
The V 180 series of the GDR's Deutsche Reichsbahn & was the largest diesel locomotive built in the GDR. It was initially built in a four-axle version with two 2-axle bogies, later there were also 6-axle variants.The low axle load of 15.6 t is still considered a masterpiece of engineering in the six-axle version, so this locomotive can also be used universally on branch lines.The resultant potential field of application is unique for large German diesel locomotives.
