■ Model with continuous high roof ventilators

The series 1044 is an electric universal locomotive that perfectly matches heavy express trains and goods trains which circulate in the lowlands and along mountain routes. At the time of commissioning, it was the most robust four-axle electric locomotive in the world and, until the Taurus was launched, the absolute showpiece of the Austrian Federal Railways.
