The diesel locomotive 5506 pictured in front of the depot Kinkempois on May 18th, 2008.

(ID 6377)



The diesel locomotive 5506 pictured in front of the depot Kinkempois on May 18th, 2008. These engines were provided in operation by the SNCB in the years 1961-1962, they particularly run in the south of Belgium. The point before the number means that this locomotive has a heater. On the red stripes and the words TVM can be seen, that this engine can reach a speed of 200 km/h and is allowed to ride on the high speed line between Liège and Louvain to tow wrecked high speed trains. Various locomotives of this series also have the words L2, then they can go up to St Louis (France).

CFC/NMBS/CFV3V 5538 stands on 23 September 2023 in Treignes. The railways of Congo (Chemins de Fer du Congo) tried to buy three ex-SNCB Class 55s, but the deal fell through due to another civil war in that African country. The NMBS/SNCB was and is phasing out Class 55 rapidly and the 5538, which was to be opne of the Congolese locos, ended with the CFV3V that uses the loco on Diesel days and for some shunting duties. Since there are plans to give the loco a repaint back to original colours, anyone willing to photograph a quasi-Congolese Diesel in the Belgian Ardennes is advised not to wait for too long.
