DB Class 82

The DB Class 82 was a goods train tank locomotive with the Deutsche Bundesbahn in Germany, that was built in the period after the Second World War and was intended for shunting and normal rail services. They were to replace the ten-coupled state railway (Länderbahn) engines and also the accident-prone Class 87 DRG Einheitslok.

Deployment
The engines were predominantly employed in the marshalling yards at Bremen and Hamm as well as on the harbour lines of Emden and Hamburg. The 82s could also be seen pulling mainline trains up the steep inclines of the Westerwald and in the Black Forest on the Murg Valley Railway. Retirement began as early as 1966, the final locomotive depot being Bw Koblenz-Mosel, where the last one was withdrawn in 1972. == Preserved ==

Locomotive 82 008, the last of class withdrawn, has been maintained at Bw Neumünster since early 2003 by the Rendsburger Eisenbahnfreunden. ==See also==
