Description
Diesel locomotive - class 220 Source : www.maerklin.de Series delivery of the first 50 machines of the V200 series (Class220) started in 1956, followed by another delivery of 31 units in 1958. The diesel locomotives were supplied by ATLAS-MaK and Krauss-Maffei. The locomotive was powered by two V-12 diesel engines, which were interchangeable. The engines were supplied by MAN, Maybach (MTU) or Daimler-Benz (MTU). From 1962, this type of locomotives were equipped with engines that delivered a power of 1100 hp. engine rated at 1100 horsepower per engine. The successor v200.1 (Class221) even delivered an output of 1350 hp. The connection to the two bogie drives was realized by means of a hydraulic torque converter, which was filled with oil just before driving off. In normal operation, both engines were used. As a separate locomotive or as a light train, the V200 could also run on 1 engine. The locomotive of this construction series was considered very noisy. Therefore, heavy compressed air horns were used as horns. The last locomotives of the Series V200.0 (Class220) were taken out of service in 1984 at the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB). The series V200.1 (Class221) was taken out of service 4 years later. Several of the machines sold abroad, as well as some German museum locomotives, can still be seen and heard today.
