SBB Crocodile 14253 at Gotthard  Contributor's Pick!       
In order to avoid purchasing new locomotives, part of this series (14251-14265) was equipped with more powerful engines in the years 1941-1947, which resulted in an increase in output from 1650 kW to 2700 kW. The designation was changed to Be 6/8 II 13251… 13265 and the maximum speed was set from 65 kph to 75 kph/46.6 mph.
