The type series M 700 C from Krauss-Maffei is a standard-gauge works railway and shunting locomotive for heavy shunting and medium-distance service with diesel-hydraulic drive , 700 hp and three axles ( wheel arrangement C). It was developed in the early 1960s.
development
The locomotive belongs to the fourth post-war generation of Krauss Maffei locomotives. In their designation there is only an M as a prefix in front of the engine power.
The locomotives were developed from the previously delivered second and third generation machines.
The locomotives were mainly needed for RAG Aktiengesellschaft to replace the last steam locomotives. 27 locomotives were delivered to the RG. Also received
- Krupp Stahl AG in Bochum three locomotives (rental),
- BMW two locomotives
- BEHALA two locomotives
- Shell in Hamburg-Harburg, Port Railway Frankfurt , Port Railway Hanover , BASF in Ludwigshafen, Mannesmannröhren-Werke in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Union Victor in Castrop-Rauxel, Port Neuss and Hafag in Duisburg each have a locomotive.
Two locomotives remained with the manufacturer and were rented to various customers.
technology
The locomotive has a central driver's cab with a larger front section for the diesel engine and a smaller one for the auxiliary operations. The front stem is a little beveled. In the front part of the driver's cab there is a switch cabinet with the operating elements for controlling the locomotive on both sides. The ascent is placed behind the controls.
The machinery consists of an eight-cylinder four-stroke diesel engine of MTU , via a propeller shaft Anflanschkupplung and the force on the hydraulic fluid transmission from Voith write which is placed under the cab floor. A secondary gear for maneuvering and driving is flanged to the fluid transmission. The axles are driven from its transmission output via cardan shafts.
The wheels are designed with wheel tires . The disc brake is located on each outer side of the wheel, a brake cylinder acts on each brake disc. A spring-loaded brake is available as a parking brake .
commitment
Many locomotives have been preserved to this day and have been modernized in places for further operation.
Neuss Railway
The locomotive, which was given a technical description, was built in 1975 and was first used as a rental locomotive. In 1976 it was handed over to the Neuss Railway and operated there under the designation 1 with a second occupation until 2006, when it was parked after an accident. In 2010 it was repaired at the Westfälische Lokomotiv-Fabrik Hattingen Karl Reuschling and has been rented to various customers since 2012. The locomotive has had a zebra outfit since that time. It has the NVR number 98 80 0506 051-8 D-NE in the German vehicle settings register .
Repowering at Gmeinder
Several locomotives were re-engineered at the Gmeinder locomotive factory in Mosbach . They received a new engine from Caterpillar and a new transmission.
