When the first BR 132 (later BR 232) diesel locomotives were put into operation in 1974 for universal use in passenger and freight transport, the Deutsche Reichsbahn assumed a service life of 20 years - and currently, almost 50 years later, there are still a few examples the BR 232 in action.
Today the locomotives of this series are mainly to be found in freight train service. An example of this is 232 333-5 from Wedler Franz Logistik GmbH & Co. KG. The medium-sized, private railway company is active in the areas of freight transport and railway construction logistics, among other things.
One of the regions in which the 232 333-5 is used is Sonneberg, where the locomotive can be seen from time to time transporting logs.

This scene was faithfully implemented for the model railroad world with the PIKO TOFT-Set 2022.
