Happy Switcher Saturday from Finland. Today I am posting pictures of the Dv15 series locomotive that served on the Finnish railways between 1958 and 2004. The Dv15 series was the first locomotive to displace steam locomotives from track yard work, and a total of 58 of them were manufactured between 1958 and 1961. The locomotives were manufactured by Valmet and Lokomo here in Finland. The engine is Tampella/MAN W8V22/30 A.m.A. Engine power 840hp. The soundscape in this locomotive is really wonderful, one of my absolute favorites. This #1991 has been put into a museum and is now hauled in museum trains, mainly in rolling stock.

Very nice. Would love to hear that soundset, and, the sliding engine door is something I’ve not seen before, although my knowledge of real trains might fill a thimble.
