Fleischmann 733004 electric locomotive BR 140, DB, Ep. IV

German Federal Railroad class 140 electric locomotive.

For hauling heavy freight trains on main lines in the lowlands, the BZA Munich, Kraus-Maffei and SSW developed the BR E 40, which largely corresponds to the E 10.1 in terms of technical design. Only the gear ratio was changed and the standard installation of an electric brake was dispensed with. Over 800 of these 110 km/h locomotives entered service from 1957. Their output was 3,260 kW. In 1968, it was redesignated the BR 140. For a long time, it carried the main load of freight train traffic on electrified lines, but was also used in front of passenger trains. At the end of 2016, it was retired from service with DB after almost 60 years of use.
