The so-called "Diving Goggles" or "the Bespectacled" was developed and built by the CKD in Prague. The first prototypes of the diesel locomotive Class T 478.3 originated in 1968. With the idiosyncratic design of the window fronts, visibility for the train drivers was to be improved, especially during coupling operations. Together with the engine room windows, which resembled portholes, this was another reason for the German nickname "Diving Goggles".
