SJ class Ds

This is the first engine type of the Swedish D-series. Delivered by ASEA/Motala Verkstad in 1925. The D-series locomotive was a new type of engine which was needed in the expanding electrification of the Swedish railroads. From 1925 and for almost 50 years the D-series were dominating at SJ and its highly modern engine made it useful in varying service around the country. In 1933 they were renamed and added with a second letter to distinguish their special service: Ds for express train (sn?llt?g); Dg for freight (godst?g); Du for mixed service (universell); Dk for heavy express trains; Dr for Dk engines with higher gearing (rapid).

The first 135 engines were all built before 1934 and had wooden bodies which even at that time was unique. Later on many of the locomotives were rebuilt and fitted with steel bodies in order to increase safety and reduce maintenance.

This particular locomotive, No:135, was taken out of service in May 1972 and scrapped in Karlskoga, November 1976.
