Diesel-hydraulic locomotive

Hrvatski jezik - Croatian language

Three locomotives manufactured by Krauss-Maffei Co., series D66, nicknamed »Dinara«, »Kozara« and »Sutjeska« (the most famous Yugoslav partisan battles of the World war II) were the first diesel-hydraulic locomotives destined for train-hauling purchased by Yugoslav Railways. They were bought in West Germany and intended for hauling so-called »Blue train« (the presidential train of former Yugoslav president Tito, who died in 1980).
