Renfe diesel-electric locomotive No. 1801 (later 318-001) of 1958 by Alco, next
to the electric 7807 (later 278-007) of 1954 by Westinghouse.
Two examples of American-designed post-war power in Spain. Even the lighted
number boxes are typically American.

Renfe diesel-electric locomotive No. 1801 (later 318-001), built
1958 by Alco, 1457 kW, 120 km/h. Clearly derived from an American
single-cab design, Renfe required a second cab that was installed
on the flat end without a nose or side doors.

Railway Museum Vilanova i la Geltrú - Spain Diesel locomotive 1801 (318-001) is seen from the flat end. Normally this side was coupled to the train (coaches or freight cars) and it operated "nose first". The locomotive was built in 1958 in the USA.

Diesel-electric locomotive Renfe 3T/353-003 "Virgen de Begoña",
built 1949 by American Car Foundry to work together with the Talgo II
units, of which the front end of the baggage car (without wheels) was
supported by the rear end of the locomotive. In 1958 the original
Hercules eight-cylinder engines were replaced by more reliable Maybach
six-cylinder engines. The Talgo II service ended in 1972, after which
three of the four locomotives were rebuilt with new rear ends, running
as a pair to pull a Talgo III between Miranda de Ebro and Bilbao until
1976. The preserved locomotive remains in the rebuilt state, recognizable
from the front by the buffers and additional headlights, but was
repainted in its livery of origin. The four-car Talgo II set in the same
museum cannot be coupled to the locomotive, unlike the one preserved in
Madrid.

Cab fragment of Renfe diesel-electric locomotive 2005 T "Virgen del
Carmen" (later 352-005) of 1964 by Krauss-Maffei. This single-ended
series was designed to run with Talgo III units, to which they were
coupled with Scharfenberg couplers and provided electric energy.
Technically they were related to DB class V200.0, but in a different
low-profile body. In 1986 the locomotives were rebuilt, adding
air-conditioning units and replacing the wrap-around front windows
by six smaller, less elegant but more robust windows. The 352-005-3
went out or service 1998, the last three locomotives were withdrawn
in 2002.

On the right, Diesel-hydraulic locomotive Renfe 3005 T (later 353-005-3)
"Virgen de la Bien Aparecida" on the right (Krauss-Maffei 1969, in service
until 2003, 6041510 km travelled). Technically derived from class 352
(2000 T) the five locomotives of this class were more powerful (2200 kW)
with a new body design. They could reach 180 km/h (on a test run in 1978
one reached 230 km/h). Until 1972, the 3002 T and 3005 T were used in
France on standard-gauge bogies for the Catalan-Talgo. They were later used on two different routes between Mardid and Barcelona. On the left, the 354-001-0 "Virgen de Covadonga", a more modern and more lightweight version (80 t instead of 88 t), reaching 200 km/h with a power of 2250 kW, built 1983, in service until 2008.

Railway Museum Vilanova i la Geltrú - Spain TALGO diesel locomotive 3005T (353-005) was built for hauling TALGO coach sets by Krauss Maffei in Germany in 1969. It could operate at up to 180km/h. Vilanova i la Geltrú, 01-06-2023 Photo by Marco van Uden |

Diesel-hydraulic locomotive Renfe 354-001-0 "Virgen de Covadonga",
built 1983 to haul Talgo Pendular trains, more lightweight than the
previous class 353 so that it can go faster in curves at up to 180 km/h
regular speed. Electrification rendered them useless in the 2000s.
