The kkStB 1060 was an electric locomotive series of the kk Austrian state railways kkStB, which was also procured as the Ewl series by the electric local railway Vienna-Landesbanken near Hainburg (LWP) . The locomotives of this series were the first standard gauge full- gauge electric locomotives with AC drive in Austria .

history

Two 1060s in front of a train on the Vorberg viaduct of the Mittenwaldbahn
During the renovation of the Technical Museum, the 1060.001 was housed in the Strasbourg Railway Museum (1999)

In 1912 the kkStB procured nine of this series for the newly opened Mittenwaldbahn . Originally they were operated with alternating current 15 kV / 15 Hz due to their proximity to Germany, but in 1923 they were converted to 15 kV /  16 23  Hz. The drive was carried out with a motor mounted high in the frame and a parallel crank drive with a jackshaft coupled with three drive axles. The total weight also required a barrel axle, which was designed as an Adam axle. The motor was a high-mounted repulsion motor according to Winter-Eichberg, which was controlled by means of a brush adjustment and, without a transmission gear, drove the wheel sets via an oblique rod.

The vehicles fulfilled their task to full satisfaction until the end of the 1920s. They were replaced by machines of the more powerful  BBÖ 1170 series.

In 1914 three more machines of this series came as freight locomotives on the Pressburger Bahn belonging to the LWP , where they were designated as Ewl 1–3 .

The BBÖ designated the vehicles as 1060.001–012 (1060.001–009 Mittenwaldbahn, 1060.010–012 Pressburgerbahn) and retired most of them in 1934. The remaining four machines (including two of the LWP) were withdrawn from the Deutsche Reichsbahn in 1940/42 .

Whereabouts

Only one of the 12 locomotives built has survived. The museum locomotive 1060.001 has been in the Vienna Technical Museum since 1977 . It was restored in Linz in 1961, and viewing windows were built into the side wall so that the interior of the locomotive could be viewed.
