THE TRIUMPH ADLER TA 1069 IS A SPECIAL VERSION OF THE TA 1000 COMPUTER.
IN 1969, THE DEUTSCHE BAHN STARTED THEIR ITS PROJECT (ITS = INTEGRIERTE TRANSPORT-STEUERUNG), WHICH SHOULD HANDLE ALL DATA INPUT, DATA HANDLING, DATA STORING AND DATA OUTPUT VIA ONE COMPUTER SYSTEM. THEREFORE ONE MAIN CENTRAL SERVER (SIEMENS 7.755), 10 REGIONAL SREVERS (SIEMENS 7.740 WITH SIEMENS 9685 AS LINE COMPUTER), 87 DATA CONCENTRATORS (SIEMENS 9675) AND ABOUT 6300 DATA STATIONS (4100 STATIONARY TERMINALS AND 2200 MOBILE) WERE PLANNED.
THE STATIONARY DATA STATIONS SHOULD MANAGE THE FOLLOWING JOBS:
- INTELLIGENT DATA ENTRY TERMINAL FOR ORDERING/ SELLING TICKETS AND SEAT RESERVATIONS - MOFA (FKA)
- INTELLIGENT DATA ENTRY TERMINAL FOR CREATING INDIVIDUAL TIMETABLES.
- INTELLIGENT DATA ENTRY TERMINAL FOR HANDLING WAY BILLS, SHIPPING DOCUMENTS FOR THE CARGO.
- DUMB DATA ENTRY TERMINAL FOR WAGGON LOADING (VEDE / CARGO).
BUT THAT WAS NOT ENOUGH, THERE WERE ALSO SOME SPECIAL REQUIREMNETS (AMONG MANY OTHER):
- TEH DESIGN OF THE DATA ENTRY TERMINAL HAS TO BE ERGONOMIC
- THE PRINTER HAS TO PRINT TICKETS AS WELL AS FULL SIZE REPORTINGS AND ALSO HAS TO HANDLE ALL THE CARGO PAPERS
(WHICH NEEDED SOMETIMES 7-TIMES CARBON COPIES!!!)
FOR REALIZING THIS THE DB SEARCHED A PARTNER IN THE COMPUTER INDUSTRY. AFTER A THRILLING FIGHT WITHIN THE GERMAN COMPUTER INDUSTRY TA TOOK OVER THE PART OF WALTHER IN THE WALTHER/ SIEMENS PARTNERSHIP (BECAUSE OF BANKRUPTCY OF WALTHER) AND COMPETED SUCCESSFUL AGAINST PHILIPS, NIXDORF AND HOHNER.
AT LEAST OVER 5000 TA 1069 MODELS WERE BUILT! (350 UNITS WERE SOLD TO THE NETHERLANDS, TOO)
ALTHOUGH THE TA 1096 WAS A HUGE SUCCESS FOR TRIUMPH ADLER, NOT SO MANY UNITS SURVIVED. WHEN THE DEUTSCHE BAHN INTRODUCED THEIR NEXT COMPUTER SYSTEM IN THE EARLY 90S, MOST MACHINES WERE SCRAPPED.
I AM LOOKING FOR ANY INFORMATION AND PARTS FOR THE TA 1069!
PLEASE REPORT ALSO ANY KNOWN SURVIVORS TO ME!
