      These “tunnel locomotives” are similar to the class Tm 2/2 engines that are used by the RhB and BVZ. The number in the class description represents the power (European horsepower). All locomotives are double-axle engines, they weigh up to 40 metric tons. Class D 60 is a passenger railcar with a suitable trailer.
      The company Schöma in Diepholz near Bremen, Germany, specializes in light locomotives and tunnel locomotives.
