The DB BR 101

In the early 1990s, Germany’s express passenger services largely relied on locomotives from the 1970s, including the DB BR 103 and DB BR 120. They were hauling heavier trains than they had been designed for, leading to damage, declining reliability and rising maintenance costs. Deutsche Bahn needed a new express passenger locomotive and ordered 145 from ABB.

The first locomotive was completed and displayed in Orient Red in July 1996. ABB merged with AEG to form ADtranz, allowing the new locomotives to be built more quickly at multiple locations. Components were made at various facilities, with final assembly in Poland. The first DB BR 101 entered service in February 1997 and proved an efficient, high-speed passenger locomotive.
