For the shunting of passenger coaches and goods wagons in railway stations, the Deutsche Bundesbahn relied on smaller shunting locomotives early on. The further development of the Köf 11, with power transmission via Cardan shafts and additional axle drive, was presented in 1965 by Gmeinder. From these at first called Köf 12 locomotives, were further 251 shunting locomotives delivered to the Deutsche Bundesbahn as series 333. To save personnel, the Deutsche Bundesbahn fitted a large part of the locomotives with a radio remote control from the end of the 1980s on. The DB designated these locomotives 335 series.
