[DE] Akiem 187 501: The brown HSL livery is gone

Written by on in Bombardier, Bombardier TRAXX, Bombardier TRAXX AC3, Bombardier TRAXX AC3 Akiem

One of six Akiem electrics with a ‘European Logistics Together’ wrap has lost its stickers. The brown 187 501 is plain silver again. Instead, it now sports the logos of the Hessische Güterbahn (HGB) in white and yellow.
