With the ES 9 to ES 19 , the Prussian State Railways commissioned the first mass-produced express train electric locomotive. However, due to the onset of the war, it could no longer achieve a larger number. The Deutsche Reichsbahn assigned the locomotives to the E 01 series in 1925 .

history

At the beginning of 1914, the delivery of the locomotives began, which was very unsteady until it was completed in 1922. When the war broke out, the three machines that had previously been operational were transferred from Halle to Silesia , where electrical operation was continued from the Nieder Salzbrunn depot . The series was actually not designed for such demanding routes and the staff had to struggle with signs of wear and tear over and over again throughout their entire service life, especially since the material quality had deteriorated considerably during the war.

With the resumption of operation in the electrified network in Central Germany, the now complete series was moved back to its original area. In 1926, ten machines were still being redesignated as the E 01, but the end of service for this locomotive was foreseeable due to the increased train lengths and the resulting excessive demands. In the years 1926 to 1929, the Deutsche Reichsbahn decommissioned the locomotives. Some locomotives still served as spare parts donors for the Prussian passenger locomotives EP 202 to EP 208 (DR series E 30), which had identical traction motors. No locomotive has been preserved in a museum.

Constructive features

In the tests that had been going on since 1911, the Halle Railway Directorate had experimented with a wide variety of axle arrangements for electric locomotives. A triple-coupled construction was selected for the first series in order to be able to combine effective energy transfer to the rail and smooth running.
