Those locos working in a really hard conditions. Like fifteen years ago i was on one of these locos, when we were visiting one of those coal mines near Nové Sedlo u Lokte, when i was studying. In this video u can see them on a classic rail network. But we see them, when they were on its mission...on surface of the mine itself, in many levels...they are using portable tracks and electric lining. That is why they were build, many years ago, from three blocks and every axle is powered...to minimalize the issue of derailment in those very very hard conditions...they like drifting with the wagons on a very primitive rails...but it has a point...you can move the rails and the electric lines straight to the place where the coal is mined by a few hours...

To be frank they wouldn't be able to operate on any other line as they operate on 1.5kV DC while network in Czechia operates either on 3kV DC or 25kV AC.

There is greater chance that Tillig will make one in 1:120, or perhaps some small Czech manufacturer will produce limited number of those. But while railway modelling is more or less popular hobby in Czechia (I could be biased a little bit), people do not exactly model industrial railways of Northern Bohemia, nor industrial railways in general, maybe save for some narrow gauge stuff, but rather normal railway. So it perhaps never came to anybody's mind to produce model of electric industrial locomotive.
THAT WEIRD ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE LOOKS LIKE SOME ALIEN MONSTER BEING OR CONTRAPTION. ARE WE ON EARTH HERE OR ON SOME FAR FLUNG PLANET IN ANOTHER GALAXY? SOME DELIGHTFULLY GRUESOME INDUSTRIAL SCENERY AND GREAT METAL CLANKINGS. DID HUMANS REALLY BUILD THIS WORLD?

That's a machine for moving the temporarily laid tracks in the mining pit. The rollers in the middle grab the rails, lift the track up a bit and move it to one side. Don't know the English word though (in German it's "Gleisrückmaschine").

Aggiungo: ho visto che questa locomotiva non tira mai più dì 10 vagoni e viaggia a bassa velocità nonostante sia elettrica... Visto che comunque è di grandi dimensioni (con tutti i tre pezzi uniti) mi viene da pensare che tutto quello spazio potrebbe contenere motori elettrici non potenti assieme a motori diesel o batterie per funzionare in mancanza di linea elettrica.

@@trupman You know the history of Czechia (Czechoslovakia) during 20th century, right? Certainly the coal reserves helped to dampen possible impact of oil crisis as most of the energy used in industry came from coal and not from oil based fuels, as was case of other nations. For Example France, Japan and the USA had significant capacities in oil fired power plants and those were sensitive to price of oil that is, even today, volatile.

@@MrToradragon which is not a matter of last 30 years. However the excessive coal mining has been continuing in this region even now. Long after the coal powered plants are not necessary for the local consumption. However an export of this dirty energy to Germany or Austria is a good source for private owners. The ecological outcomes however will be paid by all the ordinary people.

Coal trains are important and will become the backbone of our planetary energy supply within a couple of decades, when stockpiles of oil, gas and uranium will be depleted. Coal can replace ever hdrocarbon compound and the ash from coal power plants is a rich source of uranium. And coal will last for about 400 years, while the collapse of the planetary climate might come after about 500 years.Therefore, we don't have to worry about climate change.
