ASEA Rz
Rz was an electric locomotive built by ASEA to test out asynchronous motors. It was built in 1982 and closely related to the Rc-series. It was test run until 1989 on Siljansbanan, but there was never any mass production of it.

Later developments
After ASEA merged with Brown, Boveri & Cie to form Asea Brown Boveri in 1988 the development of asynchronous motors was moved to Switzerland. The Rz-technology was utilized for the development of the X2-train and the Rc5}-locomotive.
Disposal
In 1992 the engine was donated to the Swedish Railway Museum, but they were not particularly interested in it and in 1999 it was moved to Örebro to become a parts locomotive.
gollark: The only *acceptable* way to describe colors is as a list of tuples of (inbound light frequency, photon count).
gollark: If you look at a color space diagram you might just go "wow, those are just undifferentiated cyans, why would I care about those", but this is merely due to your monitor bad.
gollark: Interestingly, your monitor cannot display a *worrying* quantity of cyans.

gollark: If you make the counters/adders/register bigints it might still work.
