They had been built to pull heavy railway guns. Two locomotives, class V 188 001 a\/b and class V 188 002 a\/b, continued to be used by the Deutsche Bundesbahn after the war. A third locomotive served as a spare parts donor. They proved their worth in the heavy goods train and shunting service, mainly on the \"Spessart\" ramp. After the generator was damaged, the V 1088 001 needed to be dismantled as early as 1968. The V 188 002, later designated as 288 002, was still operating in the Franconian area until 1972. In 1973 both engines were scrapped.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fleischmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43092861878377,"sku":"4005575254458","price":649.3,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/auroratrains.com.au\/products\/fleischmann-725170-diesel-electric-double-locomotive-288-002-9-db-dcc-sound-n-scale","provider":"Aurora Trains","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
