List of locomotives and railcars of the grand ducal oldenburg railway

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list contains the locomotives and railcars of the Grand Ducal Oldenburg Railway (GOE).

Designation of the locomotives

The locomotives of the Grand Ducal Oldenburg Railway were given a name and a track number corresponding to the inventory number, which was assigned in the order in which they were delivered. Numbers that became free due to retirement were not reassigned.

Landscape, river and place names from the Grand Duchy and the rest of Germany were chosen for the locomotives. Names of animals, planets and characters from Norse mythology were also used. The names of the small tank locomotives, which were intended to indicate the mobility of these vehicles, were particularly original: HIN, HER, FLINK, FLOTT and the like. On the other hand, names of personalities from the country's history were not given, in order not to “give rise to superfluous play on words and secondary interpretations, etc.” Names that had become vacant through retirement were transferred to newly delivered locomotives. The GOE stuck to the practice of naming the longest of all German state railways; this took place until 1920.

Generic names were never introduced on the Grand Ducal Oldenburg Railway. Only in the run-up to the redesignation by the DRG did they use Prussian generic names to make it easier to name and classify the Oldenburg locomotives. For some types of locomotives that were already retired at the time of redesignation, the corresponding generic names are only found in the secondary literature.
