Fleischmann 739492 electric locomotive 1020.027-7, ÖBB, Ep. V Product Details

Description

After the end of the war, 44 locomotives of the DRG E 94 series were in Austria. In 1952, ÖBB ordered three more locomotives. The series designation was changed from E 94 to series 1020 in 1954. The class 1020 was used for more than five decades in freight train and ramp service in almost all of Austria.The color appearance of the class 1020 changed over time from fir green to blood orange to traffic red. Not all of the locomotives were affected by this change. After 1985, when the last of the three fir-green replica locomotives left service, there were no more green 1020s in service. It was not until 1990 that the 1020 042 was painted in fir green and from then on was also available for nostalgic purposes (e.g. as a train locomotive for the Nostalgia Orient Express).

About a year later, 1020 047 was also painted fir green. In addition, two green trim lines were applied to the locomotive body and one trim line to each of the front ends. In contrast to the 1020 042, the 1020 027 was still covered with ÖBB picture markings, which were later removed.
