After the Second World War, a diesel locomotive with central
driver's cab was to replace outdated steam locomotives in the
medium performance range at the German State Railway (DR).
The basic design was worked out by the LKM 'Karl Marx' in
Babelsberg. That is also where the first model locomotives were
manufactured. However, the prototype for series manufacture
was supplied by the LEW 'Hans Beimler' in Henningsdorf near
Berlin. After trials and the elimination of some minor defects, the
German State Railway successfully used the V100 on branch
lines. However, there was also a need for powerful shunting
locomotives. Due to a lack of delivery and development capacities,
the German State Railway was unable to build new locomotives.
It was therefore decided to upgrade and retrofit individual
locomotives in the 111 and 110 series. The German State
Railway's main engineering headquarters in Dessau were
commissioned with the necessary design work. The actual
conversion work started in 1991. With black signboards, the
V 100 operated as 110 series in the area of the German State
Railway prior to the political turnaround in Germany. After having
been taken out of service by the German State Railway, many of
the V 100 locomotives continue to be used by private railways.
The company TLG (Transport und Logistik Gesellschaft) is using
several V 100. These locomotives are used as work trains and
for the transportation of goods across the entire federal territory.

Après la Deuxième Guerre Mondiale, la Deutsche Reichsbahn
décida de remplacer les locomotives à vapeur, devenues
obsolètes, par des locomotives Diesel de puissance moyenne
équipées d'une cabine de conduite centrale. La « Karl Marx
LKM », implantée à Babelsberg, conçut la construction de base.
Cette entreprise produisit également les premiers modèles types
de la nouvelle locomotive. C'est par contre la « LEW Hans
Beimler », implantée à Henningsdorf auprès de Berlin, qui livra
le prototype pour la production en série. Après une série de tests
et une fois quelques petits défauts corrigés, la Deutsche
Reichsbahn utilisa la V100 avec succès sur des lignes
