Al Sr. Montejo, una corrección: NUNCA ha circulado en España esta locomotora, pero otras similares, de la Compañía del Norte y luego Renfe, como las 7200, 7500, sí que lo hicieron.Algunas fabricads por Oerlikon, en Suiza. He viajado de Ávila a Madrid remolcado por alguna de ellas y puedo asegurarle que eran aún más espectaculares que la cocodrilo suiza ( la que, por cierto, tengo en escala N, la marrón, 14253, la que se ve en el video)
Any Idea why it was on a turntable? By the looks of it they didn't even turn the locomotive and on top of that even if they did it would be useless as it has a cab on both ends.
To avoid storage damages, these old trains that are not in use get driven around once in a while. Usually there is a crowd watching and the SSB, for example, even charges money for participating. So it is mostly for entertainment and the turntable was either shown for the audiance to see, or, because sometimes these things get organized at disused tracks, the workers also tried to avoid standstill damage on the turntable as well. (just a guess though).
Similar to Pennslyvania railroad Jackshaft locomotives DD-1 Too bad there is only one pair left. Two locomotives connected via vestubule and Drawbar. as a unit.
Translation - "you turned it the wrong way, you dumkopf!" :-) In NZ, in the 1950's, there used to be a horse, or two, kept nearby to move the turntables with the massive steam engines on them. I also used to see two men, one on each on lever, moving the t'table with the smaller, lighter diesel locos aboard.
Thats a neat design, semstrical, electric or hybrid, not a steam engine but has side rods. Maybe they couldnt make good electric motors small enough for each wheel at the time.
Looks to me like they know about electricity since the locomotive uses it to move. Or didn't you notice all the overhead wires and pantographs on the roof? DUH!!!
There is something wonderful about these locomotives. Sheer beauty. Thank you.
Einfach hervorragend! Ein schönes Porträt der glorreichen SBB Gotthardlok.
Gut daß die Burschen so schwach sind, so können wir uns diese schöne Lok länger genau ansehen. :-)
FANTASTIC VIDEO
einfach nur schön.

Tolles video! Ciao. Stefano :-)

They are an impressive loco, have you any idea of the horsepower of this engine?

Why were they turning the locomotive. Was one of the cabs not working?
This engine, wonderful !!
Этому "крокодилу" далеко до нашего "крокодила" ОПЭ-1ам, в котором 12 осей и с полной нагрузкой сцепной вес около 370 тонн. Это карьерный агрегат.
Beautiful side view 凸！！！

Sehr schön!
In Österreich nimmt man das Historische leider nicht (mehr) so wichtig, 1189 ist schon lange keine mehr betriebsfähig :(
The class is Ce 6/8 II "crocodile"
Why turn it anyway - can't it run in either direction?
GEIL!
かっこよすぎ~~~

Super!!!! :D
very nice
Sama elegancja historycznej lokomotywy!)
It's was a fitness test
2688 kW / 3650 PS
Piękny krokodyl !
Schön!
NEL 1956 mi regalarono un modellino Marklin di questa tartaruga!
La seule loco ou je suis jamais monte merci

Mighty fine!
Jetzt weiss ich, warum das Fitnessfahrt heisst.
Jede Lok einmal auf der Drehscheibe drehen, dann bleiben die Mitarbeiter fit. :-D
Daily fitness workout - Swiss style.
Beautiful! :)
Why do you need to turn an electric loco with two cabs? You'd think they'd use an electric turntable... or don't they know about electricity? :-)
Looks to me like they know about electricity since the locomotive uses it to move. Or didn't you notice all the overhead wires and pantographs on the roof?
DUH!!!
It's an electrical engine. Try making an electric turntable!!!
In America, that would be known as a Studebaker.
GG1 my friend, GG1
I came here for the fitness fart.
Das Krokodil ist eigentlich grün
Die sieht ja funkelniegenagelneu aus ,die Gute
Ich bin schnappie das kleines krokodil hahahhaahhahaha.
Mann, die Lok passt aber gerade noch auf die Drehscheibe was? Ein Meter mehr und es hätte nicht gepasst.
nd vorallem die arme Eisenbahn kann sich keinen Elektromotor leisten....gggggg
#schweizer
+Martin Gföller:elektrisch kann jeder, mit muckis eben nicht
ich denke es war interessanter die leut zu filmen statt den loc... schade
