DetailsThe so-called "diving goggles" or "spectacle snake" locomotives were developed and built by CKD in Prague. The first prototypes of the T 478.3 diesel locomotive appeared in 1968, marking a major advancement over its predecessor, the T 478.1. The most significant upgrade was a more powerful engine, increasing output from 1,104 kW to 1,360 kW. These locomotives earned their nickname from the distinctive design of their glare-free driver's cabs. In total, 408 diesel-electric universal locomotives of the T 478.3 series were produced, making them an iconic and highly valued model for railway enthusiasts and collectors. |
