Despite several ownership changes, ES64F4 093 still has its original livery. Now, its silver and yellow Dispolok design is combined with Beacon Rail logos:
50+ ES64F4 locomotives of MRCE were sold to Beacon Rail earlier this year. The rebranding of the fleets has started. Almost all locomotives are black – so for them, it means new yellow circle logos and a horizontal yellow line on a black background. But ES64F4-093 is one of the few exceptions, and that it now has a new owner does not bother.
The MRCE logos on its noses have been removed, and Beacon Rail circles have replaced the larger side logos. Note the new, extra horizontal yellow line:
The sad thing is that parts of the locomotive’s livery are in bad condition. The white stickers on the nose are weathered and cracked.
