The class E 10 is a standard electric locomotive first built for the German Federal Railroad in 1952 for express train service. Since 1968, it has been known as the class 110 and its sub-series as the classes 112 to 115. For many years, the E 10 was the most important locomotive series in German express train service. After the railroad reform, the locomotives were used primarily in commuter service. Individual locomotives of the class 115 ran until 2020 in front of "passenger trains for special purposes" for the transfer of cars; in the meantime, all locomotives of this class have been retired from scheduled service.

The class 110.3/112 (German Federal Railroad) uses the body of the E 10.12 with a more protruding end face, also known as the "U-frame" box. The frame is supported on the bogies by coil springs and rubber elements. In the beginning, the locomotives ran unevenly, especially in the upper speed ranges, which required a lot of reworking of the bogies. Flexicoil suspension was also tested in two locomotives (110 475 and 476).

The locomotive represents the Bügelfalten 110 as E10.12 in Rheingold livery.

The locomotive can be equipped with a powered up drive or with a 9 volt motor.
