Bombardier has released Metrans locomotive 386 031-9 over the weekend. It is the first of ten new TRAXX MS2e locomotives that will be handed over this year.
The ten new machines will have the country specific package DE-AT-PL-NL-CZ-SK-HU + ETCS level 2. Metrans’ fleet of TRAXX MS2e electrics will grow to forty machines:
- Batch 1 – 386 001-020 DE-AT-PL-CZ-SK-HU > delivered 11.2014 – 04.2015
- Batch 2 – 386 021-027 DE-AT-PL-CZ-SK-HU > delivered 10.2016 – 01.2017
- Batch 2 – 386 028-030 DE-AT-BE-NL-CZ-SK-HU > delivered Early 2017 [correction]
- Batch 3 – 386 031-040 DE-AT-PL-NL-CZ-SK-HU > delivery started May 2018
The new 386 031 has the same livery as the older locomotives, but has no CSOB bank logos. 386 020 of course is unique with its 150 Jahre Hafenbahn livery.
