Märklin 81320 scale model part/accessory Locomotive

The "Wiebe" In 1962, Henschel sent road number V 320 001 as the largest and most powerful diesel-hydraulic locomotive in Europe at that time (3,800 horsepower) on loan to the DB and ready to run. After various changes of ownership, it finally went to Italy. From there the tracklaying firm WIEBE imported the V 320 back to Germany in 1999 in a spectacular fashion. After an extensive overhaul and a completed general inspection, it ran from March of 2000 on German rails again in track laying service, then soon as road number 320 001-1 (WIEBE 7). Here it was responsible chiefly for hauling heavy trains with loads of track laying material. Its career was ended finally in 2015 by wheelset bearing damage. Since 2017, it has enriched its builder's plant in Kassel (currently Alstom) as a display piece.
