German electric locomotive Class E10.12 Rheingold of the DB. Era III Germany, DB. In 1949, it became clear that the German railroad (Deutsche Bundesbahn) needed a new locomotive for express trains. Continued construction of the successful E 18 class was out of questions since the Swiss railroad BLS had shown that locomotives with four axles in two boogies could provide the same power, but smoother running. First a more powerful version of the E 44 was considered, but this E 46 project was abandoned when it became clear that a speed above 120km\/h was needed. The new locomotive class was called the E 10, and five test locomotives were built which differed significantly to allow the testing of several innovations. All of them had a top-speed of 130km\/h, and were used on heavy passenger trains. The final design of the E 10 combined the features of all test engines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts key features are:\u003cbr\u003e21-pin digital connector\u003cbr\u003eControlled high-efficiency propulsion with a flywheel, centrally mounted\u003cbr\u003e4 axles powered through cardan shafts\u003cbr\u003eTraction tires\u003cbr\u003eTriple headlights and dual red marker lights change over with the direction of travel, will work in conventional operation, and can be controlled digitally\u003cbr\u003eLights are maintenance-free warm white or red LEDs\u003cbr\u003eSeparately applied metal grab irons\u003cbr\u003eEngineer's cabs have interior details including a separately applied speed control wheel\u003cbr\u003eSeparately applied roof walks\u003cbr\u003eLength: over the buffers 18.9 cm \/ 7-7\/16\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis item has been graded per TCA standards C-8: Like New based on visual appearance.
