Description
The Swedish locomotive builder Nydqvist och Holm AB (NOHAB) received the license to build EMD locomotives for Europe in 1949. The six-axle Australian B Class of the Victoria Railway served as the basis. The design was adapted to the UIC standard, in particular the narrower clearance gauge, and the locomotive was also fitted with European traction and buffing equipment. The locomotives were built at Anglo-Franco-Belge (AFB) for the Belgian and Luxembourg railroads. NOHAB locomotives were used by the state railways of Denmark, Norway, Belgium, Luxembourg and Hungary. Today, numerous examples are still in active service on private railroads in Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Hungary, Belgium, Luxembourg and Kosovo, among others.
