history

BSG locomotive

Lokomotive Frankfurt was founded in June 1948 as a company sports association of the Deutsche Reichsbahn and the Deutsche Post (BSG REIPO for short). In 1950 the name of the BSG was changed to Lokomotive. In the 1954/55 season, the then multi-division BSG succeeded in advancing to the Frankfurt district league for the first time and immediately made it to runner-up. In the GDR Cup competition in 1956, after winning two qualifying rounds and the first main round, the team reached the second main round, but retired after a 0: 8 at the second division Motor Mitte Magdeburg, a forerunner of 1. FC Magdeburg .

In 1957 the Brandenburgers benefited from the expansion of the 2nd GDR league from two to five seasons and rose from the Frankfurt district league together with local rivals Dynamo Frankfurt to the third highest division in the GDR . The second GDR league turned out to be only a one-year interlude for the team, with only ten season points, the Frankfurt team were relegated immediately. Lok Frankfurt played in the district league until 1971 and then again in the 1973/74 to 1976/77 seasons.

BSG IHB / WGK

On July 1, 1977, the soccer section of the BSG Lokomotive joined the BSG Civil Engineering, which had previously not played soccer and took over the BSG Lok's place in the regional league for the 1977/78 season. In 1978 the BSG IHB won the district cup and took part in the GDR-wide FDGB cup competition in the 1978/79 season. After a 1: 3 home defeat after extra time against BSG Motor Babelsberg , BSG IHB was eliminated in the first main round. On July 1, 1981, there was a change in the operating company, the Frankfurt housing and community building combine took over the BSG. As BSG WGK was played on until 1988 in the district league. After relegation in 1988, the BSG WGK was represented in the fourth class district class until the end of the GDR football game operation in 1990.

After the fall of the Berlin Wall , the BSG was transferred to an association that was initially called ESV Lok Frankfurt and later ESV 1948 Frankfurt.
