Diesel locomotive (600 mm gauge) Jung type EL.105, built 1935
(factory No. 5952) and delivered to Freund & Pels construction
company, Hamburg. One of around 200 used to build the Nordland line
and the never completed Polar Railway project. The Adolph Block
company used it on part of the Nordland railway. It went to NSB in
1946 and was used until 1951 in a peat factory (in the era peat was
used for insulation purposes in trackwork). It was then sold and
remotorized with a new engine from Kraft/Grefsen. The last
industrial user was Namdal Torvindustri, the museum bought the
locomotive in 2004 and shows it together with wagons borrowed from
Lommedalsbanen Industrial Railway Museum.
