[DE] TX Logistik presents two very, very green Vectrons

The future is rail and railways are green. Two Vectrons of TX Logistik’s fleet have been recently transformed with a sparkling green livery to remind us about it.

Railcolor News thanks Timo Zimmermann and Marc Britzwein for sharing their pictures.

TX Logistik has selected two Vectron electrics, of two different leasing companies, to bring the green message across; The ecological advantage of railway transportation.

Stay tuned for more updates about the campaign and in the meantime, check out the locomotives which will be starring as “Pure Green Pioneers”:

Remarkable: It is impressive that the full-body wrap also covers elements that are hard to wrap, or take a lot of time, such as the fronts of the frame.
