The ÖBB 1041 was an electric locomotive series of the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB).

history

The Austrian Federal Railways needed new electric locomotives for their extensive electrification program after the Second World War to replace the steam traction . This led to the construction of the 1041 series, which, like the new 1040 series , was constructed on the basis of the 1245 series . Between 1951 and 1953 a total of 25 of this series were procured. They were ordered in three series: six locomotives in 1951, nine in 1952 and ten in 1953. AEG , BBC , ELIN and SSW were responsible for the electrical part , the mechanical part was manufactured by SGP Graz .

The locomotives of the 1041 series were stationed in Attnang-Puchheim and Selzthal before they were retired . They were used on the routes in the Ennstal , Salzkammergut and Attnang-Puchheim in regional and shunting goods trains. The 1041 series was taken out of service at the same time as the 1040 series as part of the ÖBB modernization program by December 2003. The last representatives of this series were 1041.006, 015 and 202.

construction

mechanical construction

The 1041 series is the same as the 1040 series in terms of weight, top speed and wheelset diameter . There are a few minor differences though - the pivot position and wheelbase have been increased. In order to achieve an effective weight reduction, the locomotive body was designed as a hollow beam construction. The locomotive body and the coupled bogies are completely welded, the pivot pins of the bogies are fixed in the upper box. Starting with the 1041.16 locomotive, the engines were given a slightly more streamlined locomotive body, but the differences are minimal. Originally, all locomotives had straight-toothed gears . However, four locomotives received helical gears with a new gear ratio during major repairs at the Linz plant . These locomotives were designated as 1041.2. These were 1041.202, 204, 219 and 222.

Electric Construction

The electrical design largely corresponded to that of the 1040 series. The roof carried two type V pantographs with double rockers, the roof cables and the gas switch. The locomotives were equipped with an automatically acting compressed air brake, a post-brake valve and a direct acting additional brake. The 1041s originally had an AEG Kleinow spring pot drive, which was later replaced by a rubber buffer drive. All locomotives were equipped with Sifa , Indusi and train radio .

Whereabouts

The 1041.15 was largely restored to its original condition.

Five 1041 locomotives will be preserved as nostalgia and museum locomotives.
