The history of the 64 series in Belgium

As the successor to the legendary Prussian P 8, the class 38 established itself with almost all European railroad administrations after the turmoil of the world wars. In Belgium, 148 operational locomotives were classified as the 64 series. These powerful passenger locomotives shaped the image of the Belgian railroads for decades and were given a new series designation in 1946.

The prototypical view between the boiler and running gear as well as the robust die-cast metal chassis make this locomotive a highlight both visually and technically.
