    Deutsche Bahn took out the DB BR 155 from active service in December 2019. The explanation was that DB Cargo has not so much cargo trains for them to pull.

    Thanks for the heads-up, hadn't even noticed. I suppose there are some remaining with private TOCs?

    There's an article in the "Eisenbahn Kurier". The last 11 locos ended their service in Seddin. The DR BR 250 was together with the DR BR 243 the finest hour of the locomotive production of LEW.

    Good thing that DTG modeled it! This is one of my favorite engines.
