As an experiment, the Deutsche Reichsbahn in the former GDR initially equipped three examples of the 110 series with a 1,200 hp diesel engine in 1972, which also proved to be excellent in express train service. Like other components, the fluid transmission was adapted accordingly. Between 1981 and 1990, further conversions (approx. 500 locomotives) were carried out to 1,200 hp (883 kW) in Raw Stendal using the 12 KVD 18/21 AL-4 and AL-5 engines. These locomotives were known as the 112 series.
