In order to accelerate the change of traction, the German State Railways (DR) obtained 378 locomotives from the Soviet Union series V 200 (later series 120) from 1966 to 1975. Since the locomotives were missing from the factory a train heating system, they were mainly used in freight trains. Later, silencers were added to reduce the noise level of the engines. Due to the loud engine noise, the locomotives quickly became known as "Taigatdrum".This text is machine translated.
