Piko H0 - 58103 - Train set (1) - Limited edition, anniversary set from 1999 - DB

Grootbedrijf:

The real E63 was an electric shunting locomotive of the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft, later taken over by the DB.
In the mid-1930s, there was a demand in southern Germany for more electric shunting locomotives.
The Reichsbahn no longer wanted new units of the older BR E60, and chose a new design without bogies, based on a shortened E60 chassis with three coupled axles and inclined-drive (Winterthur design, with blind axles).

The locomotives were deployed in Stuttgart, Munich, Garmisch-Partenkirchen and later also Augsburg, mainly for readying staff trains at large stations.
In 1968 they were renumbered to BR 163 (163 001–008). Retirement took place around 1980.
