Prototype: The Dutch State Railways procured the two-axle shunting diesel locomotives from the manufacturer Werkspoor between 1934 and 1951, a delivery series also from CW Zwolle. A total of 169 units were built in several series and slightly different designs. Because of their distinctive exhaust noise, they became known among railway enthusiasts and railway fans as Sikken or Sik - singular for goat. Fifteen of these machines were equipped with cranes in the 1970s. After the original green paintwork, the yellow-grey colour scheme was later applied. The hard-working workhorses were in tireless use throughout the Netherlands. In the second half of the 1990s, stricter health and safety regulations led to the decommissioning of the remaining locomotives. Many of them have been preserved by museum railways and some private railway operators or are still in operation.
Founded in 1960 as a manufacturer of plastic products (sand buckets, miniature military vehicles), the company is now one of the world's leading providers of model railways as an innovation leader. The first locomotives were produced in 1976. The models were characterized by precision and authenticity right from the start and established the company's reputation for quality early on. In addition, Roco has always thought further about model railways and stimulated the industry with innovations. Over the decades, the wagons that are not shortened in length, the more prototypical tracks with less high rail profiles or the "snag-free" close couplings should be mentioned. A milestone for the future is the cutting-edge Z21 control system, which for the first time combines the virtual and real game worlds and thus raises the play value of model railways to a completely new level. Company headquarters are in Bergheim/Salzburg. Roco has a global presence and, via Modelleisenbahn München GmbH, is a company of Modelleisenbahn Holding GmbH, which also includes the German quality manufacturer Fleischmann. Roco relies on valuable and manual work. This is the only way to create the detailed, highly reliable and functional miniatures. Comprehensive quality management with internal and external quality assurance measures ensures that Roco locomotive and wagon owners receive the best quality and can enjoy their models for a long time. Here, too, Roco is a pioneer. The Roco factory in Arad was the first factory in the model railway industry to be certified according to ISO 9001 by the German DQS GmbH.
