Specific Item Information: BR 716 for the Czechoslovak Railways
Model Information: Model introduced in 2009.
Features:
  • 5-pole Motor, w. flywheel,
  • Rapido coupler pocket NEM 355,
  • All 4 axles powered,
  • White headlight (x3).
DCC Information: The model came in either DC (analog) variant or factory-equipped with a DCC decoder (no sound).
There is no decoder socket, so installing a decoder in a DC version is possible but requires a wired decoder and modifications of the PCB (printed circuit board). We call it friendly as it does not require modification of others parts of the model.
See on www.1zu160.net for decoder installation (in German).
Prototype History:
The DR V60 is a 650 hp (478 kW) 4-axle Diesel-Hydraulic shunting locomotive built for the Deutschen Reichsbahn (former Eastern Germany state railway company) between 1959 and 1982 by Lokomotivbau Karl Marx (LKM) Babelsberg and Lokomotivbau Elektrotechnische Werke (LEW) Hans Beimler Hennigsdorf. A total of 2256 V60 locomotives were built, out of which 188 by LKM Babelsberg until 1964 and the rest by LEW Hennigsdorf until 1982.
In 1970, the series was classified as Baureihe BR 106 and then BR 105 when all the numbers for BR 106 were exhausted.
After reunification of Germany, the BR 105 were re-classified as BR 345, and BR 106 as BR 346.
In the 1990's some V60 were re-motorized and were re-classified BR 344.

The DR V60 must not be confused with its namesake DB V60 (later BR 360) built approximately at the same period by the Deutschen Bundesbahn (Western Germany).

Road Name History:
Czechoslovak State Railways (in Czech Československé státní dráhy, ČSD) was the state-owned railway company of Czechoslovakia.
The company was founded in 1918 after the end of the First World War and dissolution of Austria-Hungary. It took over the rolling stock and infrastructure of the Imperial Royal Austrian State Railways.
After the dissolution of Czechoslovakia at the end of 1992, the company was divided into the state-owned České dráhy (Czech Railways) and Železnice Slovenskej republiky (Railways of the Slovak Republic). The fixed infrastructure was transferred to the successor countries according to location; the remainder was divided by 2:1 ratio.
