History

Brand new El 1 at Oslo West Station in 1922

El 1 loading SF Ammonia on the Rjukan Line in the 1940s
When the Drammen Line from Oslo West Station to Brakerøya was electrified as the first NSB line in 1922, NSB was in need of electric traction. The engines were used both for passenger- and freight trains. At first it was used on the Drammen Line, then on Sørlandet Line. In 1966 two of the locos, no. 2001 and 2002, were sold to the Rjukan Line where they served until 1988. Two of the locomotives have been preserved (no. 2001 and 2011).

gollark: Maybe just drop to 64-bit UUIDs with an efficient information-dense encoding. Collision chance is still decently low.

gollark: I pointed out that sequential numbers were obviously a bad idea, because of, among other things, speed of light delays, and the difficulty of synchronizing the count everywhere, and that UUIDs were better.
