In Tashkent, Steam Locomotive Er stands as a preserved Soviet-era engine beside Uzbekistan’s railway history. Its body wears the colours of the Uzbek national flag.

The Er series developed from earlier E-class designs through the Eu and Em variants. Larger grate areas and higher superheat helped these engines haul heavy freight across long distances. Uzbekistan used them to connect remote areas and support industrial growth. The plate identifies this locomotive as Er 772-91, built by CKD in Prague, Czechoslovakia, in 1951.

Before reaching this display, the engine belonged to the strategic reserve at Buvaida, northeast of Kokand. Workers cut it into sections, hauled the pieces uphill with a heavy tractor, then welded them together again. Masts and wires allow occasional floodlighting after dark. Nearby railway tracks connect Karshi with Kumkorgan and continue towards Termez entirely within Uzbekistan.
