Though I appreciate the effort put into creating seperate categories for each vehicle, I have to disagree with the previous naming of the subcategories in this case: Unlike the former service vehicles like the SKL 25, the SKL 26 were not numbered in ascending order but rather a new numbering scheme was introduced. In this scheme, the first number (26 or 29) denotes the builder of the vehicles' motor, the second (1 or 2, divided by a period) the builder of the gearbox, after that (and another period) follows a unique serial number for each vehicle, independent of the first two numbers. You can find more information on this scheme in the german Wikipedia at de:DR-Baureihe SKL 26 or at [1]. Therefore, I changed the names of the existing two subcategories according to this scheme. --Stefan Kunzmann (talk) 22:54, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
