These versatile diesel locomotives quickly became a staple of yard and branch line operations across Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe primary distinction between the V 60 (BR 260) and V 60.1 (BR 261) series lies in the higher friction load of the BR 261, enhancing traction for heavier shunting tasks. Both series are capable of reaching a top speed of 30 km\/h in shunting mode and 60 km\/h when travelling on the mainline, delivering a robust power output of 478 kW.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRenowned for their reliability and efficiency, the V 60 and V 60.1 locomotives represent a key development in post-war German diesel traction, serving as essential workhorses in yards and on secondary routes for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52988725887313,"sku":"RC7380016","price":144.05,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0865\/4992\/2129\/files\/rc7380016_1_v2.jpg?v=1770998249","url":"https:\/\/www.jadlamracingmodels.com\/products\/roco-db-br261-diesel-locomotive-iv-rc7380016-tt-gauge","provider":"Jadlam Toys \u0026 Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
