In 1949 the shunter situation in Germany had become a huge problem with the lack of modern and standardized machines. So the Deutsche Bundesbahn jumped head first into the development and construction of a new shunting locomotive in large numbers: The V 60! Will this one be finally the success, previous attempts were hoped to be? Enjoy!

I have a small correction to make at 07:16 and 09:24: The contrast colour for the orient red and traffic red paint schemes is not traffic white (RAL 9016) as stated in the video, but rather light grey (RAL 7035); traffic white is only used for the lettering. From afar, however, the difference is barely noticeable as both colours appear as slightly off-white. Thank you for your interest!

A reliable workhorse to be sure, amazing to think that these started service in the 1950s when they're still seeing use today.

@steelbridgemodels 7 месяцев назад

I do agree, that is quite astonishing and speaks for their rugged construction!

@HrLBolle 5 месяцев назад

same goes for some of the 4 locomotives of the electric "Einheitsreihe E10, E40, E41 und E50 (successor to the legendary E94)"

@RoamingAdhocrat 5 месяцев назад

Similar to the Bri'ish Class 08 shunter. A (comparatively) heavy shunter from the 1950s, replaced all the smaller shunters as demand declined, and still in use today. No-one really made a replacement design.

The Victorian Railways in Australia also used these; they were called W class and they were all on the 1600 mm broad gauge.

Interesting, they indeed share many similarities from the looks of it!

amazing work both on the narration and visuals

This is my favorite small locomotive. It's design is súper.

Content is awesome. The detail you went into all the liveries and logos is the best video I have seen. Thank you for what must have been a ton of work to write, edit and produce. I like the traffic red and white.

@steelbridgemodels 7 месяцев назад

Thank you so much! It was indeed quite a challenge fitting all this information into one video, without making it too lengthy. But I think it worked out just right in the end!

I have the Marklin Traffic Red and a Gray version of a private outfit ... both with Telex coupling...great shunters on my layout and occasionally I will have the red one pull the DB thunder boxes

I love these little locos

@drstrangelove4998 5 месяцев назад

I’ve had a Märklin V60 bought for me as a child. I love the original DB livery in the purple red!

Superb

@jamesgorman5241 5 месяцев назад

It's quite nice to look at and shunters are generally brick on wheels.

@anscart2969 5 месяцев назад

Ah yes, a legendary vvehicle that is often overlooked to to it's small size and slow speeds. It's still my favourite. I prefer the ocean-blue variant with the new DB AG logo being a nice accent, although I can get why most people like the Bundesbahn version

@True_NOON 5 месяцев назад

Fun fact , the master key of this blends in near perfectly with the cab walls from the drivers seat , especially in the switched off position , tho i know this more from TSW than actual driving Aber trotzdem Ding läuft Ding schiebt Ding zieht Ding ist günstig Passt Achso und den passagierdienst hat die 628 ja gesnackt ;)

@1989Goodspeed 5 месяцев назад

Interesting videos. If you want sothing off the regular tracks, try looking up the Swedish T43 diesel, ASEA Rapid (Ra) or the Nohab F 1200 steam.

@resender329 5 месяцев назад

Strangley enough I like these best in the livery they had in service with the NMBS/SNCB, Belgium's national railway. Here they were known as the class 80

@christophetardivat234 5 месяцев назад

great video! the belgian and norwegian version are great too, both in marklin form, i also like the bundesport version from primex

@user-gk8gg1zt7l 5 месяцев назад

Nice video. Like me.

@thepacerman 3 месяца назад

these remind me of the british class 08 shunter

@23GreyFox 23 дня назад

They have some similarities. Similar size, weight and they both have a coupling rod.

@TiasVsEverything 5 месяцев назад

Weird question, but I feel like I had this in both the blue livery *and* a Norwegian railway (NSB?) livery from Märklin. Was that likely this engine? If so, I’m very glad I now know its history!

@steelbridgemodels 5 месяцев назад

It most likely was this engine! After all, the NSB had some V 60s, too; they were painted in yellow with red cabs.

Hallo Manuel, das sieht wirklich klasse aus! Ich suche schon länger nach einem 3d-Modell von der V60, um mit dem 3d-Drucker ein Modell herzustellen. Hast du deine Modelle irgendwo veröffentlicht? Liebe Grüße Jan

@steelbridgemodels 5 месяцев назад

Danke dir, Jan! Jedoch sind meine Modelle leider nirgendwo veröffentlicht oder erhältlich.

@ernestogor1570 5 месяцев назад

Muy buen video, muchas gracias por la información ya que como coleccionista en escala H0 muchas veces no conozco la histiria de los modelos que tengo. Por favor haga un video con la historia de los Schenienbus ya que los vi en modelos con diferentes colores. Muchas gracias y saludos desde Argentina

@steelbridgemodels 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much! Coincidentally I'm currently working on a model of the Schienenbus. Even though I can't say when, a video about it will come eventually! Best wishes to Argentina!

I saw a v60, number 1140 in lindau reutin in 2022. It was in the purple red livery with stripes. Do you think this a privatised example due to the color? I cant make out the logo on the cab side

@steelbridgemodels 4 месяца назад

Indeed, the V 60 1140 is privately owned by the Vulkan-Eifel-Bahn and their logo says VEB. And yes, there shouldn't be any purple red example left in the fleet of the DB, let alone with a V-number.
