The designation of the series already suggests that the 01 is often the first choice when the railroader thinks of fast, powerful machines. She was able to defend this status for several decades.
The total of 231 units were made from 1926 to 1938. It was the first standard locomotive with the 2''C1 ''wheel arrangement and also the most powerful machine for express train service. Various minor changes were made during series production. Particularly noticeable is the enlargement of the front wheels from 850 to 1000 mm from 01 102, at the same time the brakes were strengthened. This allowed the permissible top speed to be increased from 120 to 130 km / h. The series was in use at the DB until 1973, at the DR even up to the early 1980s. From 1962, 35 machines were reconstructed there and redrawn in 01 5 . From 1957 to 1961, 50 locomotives were built at DB with the 01 10 high-performance boilerfitted. Five locomotives remained operational, including the 01 150, which is probably the best-known representative of its class.
