The BBÖ 1170.2 was an electrically powered locomotive series of the BBÖ .

1245 004 with freight train in Kufstein station (1990)
1245 511-9 in Selzthal train station (1994)

Due to the planned progressive electrification of the western line from Salzburg in the direction of Vienna , there was a need for freight train locomotives for a hilly route at the beginning of the 1930s , which were also suitable for light passenger train service. Due to the changed requirements compared to the 1170 and 1170.1 series , the electrical part had to be completely redesigned, the Bo'Bo 'construction and the Sécheron spring drive should remain the same. The electrical part was taken over by all of the major electrical companies represented in Austria, AEG , Brown Boveri , ELIN and Siemens-Schuckert , who came together in the ABES consortium and from then on each took over the lead for the new Austrian locomotive series. The only remaining Austrian locomotive factory, the Floridsdorf locomotive factory , supplied the mechanical part, which was a further development of the 1170.1 series.

From 1934 to 1936 eight machines were initially delivered. 1170.209–233 were delivered from 1938 to 1939, in part already to the Deutsche Reichsbahn , which designated the vehicles as the E 45.2 series and ordered eight more. Thus there were 41 locomotives of this series.

The locomotives delivered first differed from the later ones in terms of roof shape and equipment. The box was also designed differently, so they had front transitions to the train and driver's cab doors arranged diagonally. These differences were later eliminated and the machines in their external appearance were adapted to the other locomotives in this series. The 1170.219–228 did not have an electric brake, 229 to 233 received multiple controls.

Since the electrification of the Westbahn did not begin until 1937 due to lack of money, the machines were stationed in Bludenz , Innsbruck and Salzburg. Its main area of ​​application was the Tauern Railway . From 1941 onwards, however, they were finally used on the Western Railway between Salzburg and Attnang-Puchheim . The Deutsche Reichsbahn stationed seven locomotives in Augsburg , from where they returned undamaged after 1945. However, the 1170.206, 215 and 226 had to be written off as a war loss.

From 1953 the remaining machines at the ÖBB formed the 1245 series , with the first eight designated as 1245.01-08, those with an electric brake as 1245.509ff and those without an electric brake with 1245.619-628. After all 1245.6 had an electric brake, they were added to the 1245.5 series.

The 1170.2 (1245) series proved its worth right from the start. In the first few years after the Second World War, it carried the main load of electrical train operations in Austria together with the 1020 series . The machines were retired by 1995.

Whereabouts

Numerous machines have survived to this day, thanks to many voluntary helpers and also the Austrian Society for Railway History . The ÖBB 1245.518 (in blood orange) as well as the 1245.516 (being refurbished) and the 1245.02 (as spare parts donors) are currently stationed at the ÖGEG in the Ampflwang locomotive park . There are also 1245.525 in Knittelfeld, 1245.05 at the nostalgic railways in Carinthia, 1245.514 at the Tauern Railway Museum in Schwarzach , 1245.522 at the Lienz Railway Friends, 1245.01 at the Strasshof Railway Museum , and the 1245.04 also at the Strasshof Railway Museum.
