After the end of the Second World War , the previous club structures in the Soviet occupation zone were smashed. As a result, loosely organized sports communities (SG) emerged in the sports sector, which were initially only able to hold locally limited competitions. Such a sports community was also founded in the then district town of Aschersleben, which was supported financially and logistically by the Deutsche Reichsbahn from 1948 and from then on appeared under the name SG Einheit Reichsbahn. With their soccer team, the SG rose to the state class of Saxony-Anhalt in 1949 and took eighth place out of twelve teams in the northern relay of the second highest soccer class in the GDR in 1949/50.

In March 1951, the sports community was converted into a company sports community (BSG) , and the Aschersleben depot became the official carrier company . The umbrella organization was the Locomotive Sports Association , and the BSG accordingly adopted the name Lokomotive (Lok) Aschersleben. She developed numerous sports sections, the number of which increased to 17 sports at the height of the BSG. These included soccer, basketball, handball, hockey and table tennis, as well as gymnastics, swimming and water polo.

The most successful athletes were the synchronized swimmers , who won numerous GDR championships from 1969 onwards. Most of the titles won Christine Fickert, who won 16 GDR championships solo, duo and with the team. Another championship title for Lok Aschersleben came in 1971 at the GDR individual championships in women's bowling on Bohle by Hecht. The handball women played in the second-rate GDR handball league in the 1970s.

Lok Aschersleben's soccer players were relegated to the fourth-class district class of Saxony-Anhalt / Halle in 1951, from which they had to relegate to the district league in 1953. Between 1961 and 1975 Lok Aschersleben was again represented in the district class except for the 1970/71 season (after relegation). There followed five seasons again in the district area, and from 1979 the BSG locomotive played again in the district class. The last season in the GDR soccer league system ended the BSG locomotive in 1989/90 in the district class in seventh place.

The political turnaround of 1989/90 brought serious economic changes in the GDR , to which the system of company sports associations fell victim. When the Deutsche Reichsbahn no longer supported the BSG Lok Aschersleben, BSG members founded the registered sports club Lokomotive Aschersleben in 1990 . He initially continued the previous sports in his departments and in 1997 had a membership of 1,000. In 2006 the handball department left the club and founded the independent HC Aschersleben . From 2013, the SV Lokomotive has been running women's soccer teams. In 2016, the club was active in the competitive sports of soccer, bowling (regional league), athletics, table tennis (regional class) and volleyball. In addition, gymnastics, chess, swimming, diving and triathlon are practiced. The most successful division in 2015 were the soccer players, whose 1st men's team was promoted to the seventh-class state league of Saxony-Anhalt in 2012. The women's team achieved promotion to the regional class in 2015.
