The DR Class 52.80 was a series (52 8001 - 52 8200) of Rekoloks constructed from the Deutsche Reichsbahn’s fleet of Class 52s in East Germany. They were converted from the old stock in a similar manner to the Class 50.35 around 1960 and fitted with more powerful boilers. The locomotive, as depicted in the Primary photograph, is numbered 52 8051-6, and NOT a Class 50 as currently shown. Its former number was 52 6779.
