The class V 200 was one of the German Federal Railroad's (DB) flagship locomotives in the Fifties and Sixties. At the same time it was a sign that the steam locomotive was going to be replaced before long. The original version with the striking large letters DEUTSCHE BUNDESBAHN on the side made the V 200 one of the most attractive diesel locomotives in the postwar period and was a symbol at the same time of the economic upswing of those years.
