The Köf locomotives were criticised for the open design of their driver’s cab. They were made “winterproof” to improve the operators’ working conditions. During the retrofitting process, the driver’s cab was fitted with windows, doors and a hot air heating system. Between 1971 and 1976, 403 locomotives were made “winterproof” at the Bremen and Nuremberg depots. At least another 44 Köfs were retrofitted at the local depots.
