Until the year 2006 the locomotives of the series 111 belonged to the everyday life on the Black Forest railway. today they have disappeared from the southwest of Germany. Even in winter, these locomotives were very reliable. Až do roku 2006 patrili lokomotívy série 111 do každodenného života železničnej trate v Čiernom lese. dnes zmizli z juhozápadu Nemecka. Aj v zime boli tieto lokomotívy veľmi spoľahlivé.
