Roco 78801 H0 Diesel locomotive 236 216-8 DB
Diesel locomotive 236 216 from the Deutsche Bundesbahn. The diesel locomotives of the type WR 360 C 14 were originally used by the German armed forces for use at strategically important points. With the end of the Second World War, it became a civilian multitalent.Although the V 36 was strangely under the same name after the war in West and East Germany, there were clear differences between the two variants: Two additional fuel tanks on the front end of the engine increased the range of the locomotive in the case of DB. In addition, the DB-V 36 has a front cooling grille according to the German railways design and a cooling water compensation container on the extension structure. The side radiator fan grilles were closed using apertures, and a side maintenance flap on the front end was omitted.The last locomotives, now known as series 236, were in use with the DB until 1981.This text is machine translated.
