The 230 class (ex BR 130 DR) brought mass produced 3000hp diesel locomotives onto German tracks for the first time. from 1970 onwards they were bought by the GDR State Railways. The locomotive has diesel-electric power-transmission. They incorporated 16 cylinder type 5 D 49 diesel engines.The 6-axle engine had an operating weight of 120 tonnes. The locomotive with a speed of 140km/h in principle could only be used for hauling goods, as it did not have means of heating the train. It was not possible to introduce this succesfully until later 132 class.

Due to the decline in freight traffic after reunification many diesel locomotives became surplus. The engines of class 132 (since Jan. 1 1992 class 232) will probably be rebuilt successively into class 134 using the 140km/h bogies of the deactivated class 130. This rework also affects the external appearence of the locos, especially as far as the ventilators, the roof armatures and the arrangement of the engine room windows is concerned. As part of this rework the motors are replaced as well.
