European Railroad Discussion > Holland: Recognition Help NeededDate: 07/01/15 01:36 Holland: Recognition Help Needed Author: McKey It appears this is a challenging vehicle to recognize. Woudl this be one of the Köffs or something else maybe? I've been told this in Rotterdam, Holland.

And I'm not sure the engine of the locomotive could actually run if it has been parked here for years? dcfbalcoS1 Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Not going anywhere with the wheels chocked on that > car. > Would this be Köff or something else? It has similarities but then again, also some significant differences from "the main line Köff".

These machines, over 200 of which were built starting in the 1930's, are actually diesel electric. I think a few may still be in gainful employment, especially those fitted with cranes for permanent way service. Sik = goat; and Roco has done HO models of them.

How amazing it is that some might still be in use and a platform for mobile crane... |
