Piko 59779 – Diesellok S-200 PTK Holding, Era V, DC

The design of the striking diesel-electric T669 from the CKD Prague locomotive factory is based on export orders for six-axle diesel locomotives for heavy shunting services in the former Soviet Union and Albania. After completion of the three prototypes with the designation ČME for the Soviet Union and T669.0 for the ČSD, the locomotives were successfully tested and immediately produced in series. After a short time, the locomotives were an essential part of all large marshalling yards in the USSR and Czechoslovakia.
