The Crocodiles

What is a Crocodile?

Enthusiasts applied the name of this exotic reptile to the type Ce 6/8

heavy electric locomotives which were built starting in 1919 princi-

pally for the Gotthard line. The locomotives have since then become

legendary and have thereby achieved something which otherwise is

only permitted of steam locomotives: The lessening of the distance

between man and machine.

Technicians and historians as well as railroads rate these loco

motives as milestone in the history of technology and symbols of

progress. When these units were built, they were viewed as a persu-

asive solution to a difﬁcult problem of railroad technology.

The scholars argue over when and why the locomotives were given

their nickname. It is most unlikely that they will ever be able to as-

certain whether it was to long nose pieces, the power from them, the

articulated design or even the color - brown at ﬁrst, green later.

Because of difﬁculties in obtaining fuel and supplies, the Swiss

Federal Railroads decided in 1918 to electrify all heavily used lines in

their network.

The famous Crocodile Ce 6/8II evolved because of the demands

required on such lines as the Gotthard Route, which required two

round trips between Arth-Goldau and Chiasso within 28 hours while

dragging 430 tons uphill and easing 850 tons downhill on grades not

exceeding 1,0 %.

Two companies, SLM (Swiss Locomotive and Machine Foundry

Winterthur) and MFO (Machine Foundry Oerlikon), constructed 33

units of this legendary engine during the years 1919 -1922. Technical

characteristics of these beauties included its axles and triangular

coupling frames. Each truck was driven by two motors which trans-

mitted power through a common hidden shaft whose crank ends

were connected at one end with the triangular coupling frame and

the other end with the original swinging auxiliary axleshaft.

The main advantage of this method was in its performance, since

instead of the usual sloping rod drive, just the horizontal forces of the

counter shaft were transmitted of the wheels.

The Ce 6/8II was able to maintain 1.648 kW (2.240 hp) at 36 kmph

(22 mph), and had a top running speed of 65 kmph (40 mph). Its

service weight was 128 tons.

No. 14 253 is still used for fan trips out of Erstfeld. Special markings

of this historic model locomotive Ce 6/8II are, in addition to the brown

paint scheme, black trucks and frames as well as 4 operating cab

doors.

Braking was done by two sets of brake shoes per driving axle which

are activated either by a Westinghouse air brake or by manual bra

kes. While the air brake mechanism controlled all four sets, manual

mechanism controlled only those at either respective end. For extra

traction when pulling heavy loads, sand boxes were installed at each

end.

The 33 locomotives built by SLM and MFO prior to 1922 continued

in regular service on the Gotthard Route. But the ever increasing

demands for more powerful and faster locomotives in addition to the

breakdowns of the 4 motors, prompted the railroad management to

rebuild 13 engines. Thus, during the years 1942 -1947, the engines

also received new detailing, along with the construction of new mo-

tors and stronger frames. The locomotives not rebuilt were eventual-

ly reassigned to yard duty.

Improvements in electric motor construction resulted in more power-

ful motors, even though they were of lighter weight. In fact, it was

rumored to be 70% better. This, of course, translated into a welcome

improvement in the ability to serve the important Gotthard Route. The

new rebuilds were classed Be 6/8“ and were capable of 2.679 kW
