Design SLM Winterthur

Built by SLM and Werkspoor, the CC50 were the most numerous of the tender Mallets and also the last in service, finishing approximately in 1984 when the residual Garut branch closed.

14 out of 30 examples for a follow up order for the successful CC type were granted Werkspoor in 1928, the remainder of that order being built by the designer Schweizerische Locomotiv- und Maschinenfabrik in Winterthur, Switzerland.

 

One engine engine was shipped back to the Netherlands after its working life and is since stabeld in the Utrecht Railway Museum since 1980. Since reconstruction of the museum it has been entombed in a Disney parc like attraction for which they could ust as well have used a cardboard imitation. The loco is now completely inaccessible for mere mortals.
