Further information about this vehicle type
The Köf III is one of the best-known and most reliable shunting locomotives of the German Federal Railways. Built in 1969 by Gmeinder, this locomotive continues to impress today with its robust construction and versatile applications in shunting and branch line operations. The vehicle is equipped with a 1972 MWM engine that delivers 177 kW of power, providing sufficient power for shunting heavy wagons. As a small diesel-hydraulic locomotive with two axles, the Köf III was specially developed to provide efficient and reliable service in stations and factory facilities. Technically, this model stands out thanks to its modern equipment, which meets today's safety and communication requirements. With the built-in SEL I60 ER24 PZB 90 train control system, the locomotive meets important safety standards in railway operations and can be used flexibly on many rail networks. In addition, the locomotive has a GSM-R MESA26 radio system, which ensures modern communication between the driver and the operations centre. The supplementary DB-Z system also ensures smooth integration into the regular operations of Deutsche Bahn and other operators. The Köf III is not only a piece of railway history, but also still a sought-after piece of equipment today. With its compact dimensions, a service weight of around 22 tonnes and a maximum speed of up to 45 km/h, it is ideal for shunting tasks in industry, ports and railway depots. Numerous examples are still in use by private railway companies and museum railways, which underlines the durability and quality of this locomotive series. The vehicle presented here is currently in the workshop and is undergoing technical refurbishment. This means that, once the work is complete, the locomotive will not only exude the proven reliability of a Gmeinder Köf III, but will also be equipped with modern safety technology and communication systems. This makes it ideal for operators looking for a classic but modernised shunting locomotive that combines historical charm with today's operational requirements. With its combination of tradition, modern technology and current refurbishment, this Köf III from 1969 offers an ideal solution for railway companies looking for a powerful and reliable shunting locomotive with 177 kW engine power, PZB 90, GSM-R MESA26 and DB-Z system.
