Although LEW (Lokomotivbau - Elektrotechnische Werke Hennigsdorf) offered the V 100.4 as a V 100 version that was specifically suited for shunting operations with a max. speed of only 65 km/h and without train heating, the DR (Deutsche Reichsbahn of the former German Democratic Republic) made several own tests in this direction.To improve the visibility during shunting operations,they received conspicuous orange-coloured contrast areas. While already initially designated high-handedly as 108 001 and 108 002, they were in deedre-labelled at a later time - though while keeping their old fleet numbers.
