Norwegian NOHAB Di3 Locomotive

"NSB Di 3 is a class of 35 diesel–electric locomotives built by NOHAB for the Norwegian State Railways (NSB). The class was built between 1954 and 1969, and delivered in two series, Di 3a and Di 3b. They are based on the Electro-Motive Division F7 and are equipped with EMD 567 engines. " - Wikipedia This a slight remodel and repaint of the TpF2 NOHAB to make it into a Norwegian spec Di3 locomotive. I have converted it into TpF3. The model TpF2 only represents the super early delivery version. To make it more accurate, I have removed one door on each side and added some details unique to the later Norwegian version of this locomotive. It includes 9 liveries from throughout the years, including a Danish DSB livery. The Di3 was a popular workhorse for both cargo and passenger service. They are still loved today by enthusiasts and were the backbone of rail transport north of Trondheim. I hope you'll enjoy it! These locomotives were an important piece of the transition from steam to diesel. At the time, the Bergen, Dovre and Nordland Line weren't electrified. And a diesel mainline locomotive was needed. After testing the NOHAB locomotives based on the american EMD F7, 35 were ordered and service began in 1957. Soon in the 60's, both the Dovre and Bergen Line was electrified. EL 11 and EL 13 took over mainline operations and the Di3 was moved to the smaller Røros, Valdres and Solør Line. In the 80's the Di4 came along and proved to be superior. It wasn't a complete replacement as NSB wanted newer locomotives. The plan was to retire the Di3 in the mid 1990's, and be replaced by the new Di6 and Di8. However, problems with the Di6 and termination of that order ment the Di3 had to stay in service. They remained in service at NSB until 2001, before being scraped or sold to other operators. Stats
