The DRG Class E93 is an electric heavy freight locomotive built by AEG for the Deutsche Reichsbahn in 1933. Its development was triggered by the electrification of the Geislinger Steige, a steep grade on the main line between Stuttgart and Ulm, which was electrified in 1933 and needed powerful new freight locomotives to lift heavy trains up it. The 18 units ordered were delivered between 1933 and 1937. Its appearance resembles a Swiss Crocodile, but the axles are individually powered and the body is not articulated. The DRG Class E 94 was its successor.
