This video contains a unique compilation of old electric locomotives, most of which are already railway history. Lots of footage of the German series BR 44, BR 75, BR 18, BR 77 and BR 103 in active and non-active service. In addition, all electric locomotives of the great locomotive parade in 1997 in Lausanne (150 years of Swiss railways) can be seen. The film also shows old-timers from the BLS, the Emmentalbahn, etc., which drove through Switzerland during the anniversary year.

Also on display are electric locomotive veterans of the anniversary "150 years of railways in Austria" from 1987.

In short, a fascinating insight into the railway engineering past of Austria, Switzerland and Germany!
