At the time of the electrification of the Valenciennes-Thionville line, the single-phase current of 25 kV was introduced. Since no final decisions were made in 1952, the SNCF decided to experiment with different engine solutions by producing 4 different series of locomotives (BB 12000, BB 13000, CC 14000 and DC 14100).The shape of all these locomotives with the two pantographs mounted above the driver's cab in the middle, the conical stems and the unusual blue paintwork of the locomotives gave all these locomotives, which were nicknamed "Iron", a coherent "look".The CC 14000/14100 locomotives were intended for freight traffic at a maximum speed of 60 km/h, while the BB 12000/13000 locomotives were intended for mixed passenger and freight service.Built in 20 units and ordered between January 1955 and March 1959, the 2640 kW CC 14000 were used in the north and east for heavy freight and coal trains, but were initially not very convincing due to the low reliability of the asynchronous converters and motors.They were retired between 1977 (CC 14002, 14004, 14012 and 14017) and 1981, the last 7 machines (CC 14001, 14003, 14005, 14011, 14015, 14016 and 14018) were stationed at the Mohon depot. The CC 14018 in blue paint has been added to the SNCF museum collection. Less powerful with 1860 kW, but more numerous with 102 units, the CC 14100 were used in mining and steel transport. However, with the decline in this traffic and the increase in the speed of freight traffic, the field of application for these locomotives was gradually lost. The last 5 machines (CC 14125, 14146, 14153, 14155 and 14183) were decommissioned in June 1997. Detailed scale model. Not suitable for children under 14 years.
