Already in the 1920s, the Austrian Federal Railways (BBOe) decided to electrify the most important routes as quickly as possible. Specially designed for the ramps in the mountains, the seven mountain-express train locomotives in series 1100 (in the case of OeBB: Series 1089) were delivered to the BBOe in 1923/24. The 20,350 mm long machines consisted of two short-coupled traction units, on which a short machine bridge with transformer, slide switch gear and two driver's cabs were stored in a hinged bearing. Due to their long, low and narrow front end hoods on the powerracks, the name âcrocodileâ quickly became the name, with these machines looking the âmost crocodifiedâ of all âcrocodilesâ. As they proved to be the best in 1926/27, nine replicas were delivered as in 1100.101-109 (OeBB: 1189.01-09), which achieved a higher speed due to a changed transmission ratio and were equipped with stronger engines.Model: Electric locomotive series 1189 Austrian crocodile of the Austrian Federal Railways (OeBB).

In the late 1960s, the Deutsche Bundesbahn realized that the unit locomotives from series 140 and 150 were not sufficient to meet the growing traffic requirements. Some were too weak (BR 140), the others too slow (BR 150). A new type of locomotive had...
