Loks der Deutschen Bundesbahn - 1949-1993 (Typenkompass)
After the Second World War, the two German state railways went their separate ways. The young Deutsche Bundesbahn managed to rejuvenate and modernize its vehicle fleet much faster than the Deutsche Reichsbahn of the GDR.
In its tried and tested form, this Typenkompass reports on the construction, procurement and modernization of the locomotives and railcars of the German Bundesbahn from 1949 to 1993. It takes into account not only the new steam locomotive and diesel locomotive series, but also the modern diesel and electric railcars. Each type is presented with the help of a photo, a historical description and technical data.

This Typenkompass presents the impressive vehicles in words and pictures.
