New trains made in Europe

[ES] 24 MW in one picture: Euro6000s for Alpha Trains and Captrain España

Written by on in Stadler Rail, Stadler Rail Euro6000, Stadler Rail Euro6000 Alpha Trains (1,435/1,668mm)

So far, we have identified three Stadler Rail Euro 6000 locomotives for Alpha Trains. That the production is on track, is proven by the picture shown below; four locomotives on the test track behind Stadler’s Albuixech factory near Valencia, Spain.

Brace yourselves. These four multi-system, electric locomotives have a combined power rating of 24,600 kW; 6,150 kW each. Andresmt9 has captured the quartet:
