Fragment of the DRG E 50 42, built by LHB in 1926, with 90 km/h and 2400 kW
a powerful locomotive of its time. An impressive example of the first
generation of electric locomotives with one big, slow-rotating multi-pole 
central motor, driving five axles via an interesting triangular side rod
arrangement. Verkehrsmuseum Dresden, 2001-04-27.
