First, it was the Czech Republic. Now it’s time to test the Vectron Dual Mode in Germany. Since early June, 248 001 is in Wegberg-Wildenrath.

On 10.07.2019 Achim Scheil captured 248 001 undergoing trials at the Wegberg-Wildenrath test and validation center. The red Vectron behind it is DB Cargo’s 193 318 which was previously used for authorization test runs in Belgium.

We thank Achim Scheil for his picture:
