The Swiss Ce 6/8 III was based on its predecessor the Ce 6/8 II, and was built by SLM (Schweizerische Locomotiv-und Maschinenfabrik) and the MFO (Machined Fabrik Oerlikon). The mechanical part of the Ce 6/8 III was manufactured by the SLM and the electrical part by the MFO. The locomotive was given the nickname "Crocodile" or "Gotthard Crocodile". The locomotive was developed for freight transport on steep slopes such as the Gotthard Bahn. In total, 18 locomotives of the Ce 6/8 III series were built, of which 9 were put into operation in the year 1926 and 9 in 1927. The Ce6/8 III locomotives were immediately deployed on the Gotthard railway. The maximum speed was around 65 km/h. In April 1977, the last Ce 6/8 III was decommissioned. Some of these crocodiles have been preserved, and some are still functional and are used for special trips.
