[DE] New Smartron alert: Northrail 192 013 joins the fleet of LEG

Indeed, it has been a bit quiet around the Siemens Smartrons recently. But that doesn’t mean things are at standstill. At the end of last year, Paribus>Northrail took delivery of locomotives 192 011 and 012 and both were leased to TX Logistik. We’ve had no news from 2020, that is, until now. 192 013 is out!

We thank Marcel Lotzen for sharing his nice picture with us. Visit his Instagram profile for more railway pictures from Germany.

Leipziger Eisenbahngesellschaft (LEG) is the name of 192 013’s first lessee. Outshopped on 20.02.2020, today it was seen in action by Marcel Lotzen in Groß Rohrheim (DE), which shows it pulling tank car train DGS95385 which runs from Bitterfeld to Karlsruhe West:
