Album Info:More than 1,400 Bo'Bo'-electrical TRAXX locomotives (Transnational Railway Applications with eXtreme fleXibility) have been sold and more than 850 are already hauling freight and passenger trains for Europes major railways. Beside of the mainlines many units where ordered by leasing companies and are in operation with dedicated privat operaters which came up with the transnational open access system in Europe. Depending on configuration the TRAXX units operates on standard gauge railway lines electrified with 15 kV 16.7 Hz, 25 kV 50 Hz, 3 kV DC and 1,5 kV DC.

128 001-5  - Bombardier Transportation
Title:  128 001-5 - Bombardier Transportation
Description:  1994 AEG built this first unit, called 12X, of a new electrical engine generation. Numbered 128 001-5, it went through mergers and take over with Adtranz and now to Bombardier Transportation. The engine has a remarkable speed of 220 km/h and developed 6.400 kW. It runs under 15 kV 16,7 Hz AC systems only. Many technical innovation went into the Bombardier 145 type and later further on the proven TRAXX-family. It was stored at Bombardier Switzerland, where the picture was taken. Latest news: At July 8th 2010 the 128 001 was transfered to Berlin-Hennigsdorf back to the factory, where she was built.

483 001 SF -  Angel Trains Cargo NV/SA, Antwerpen
Title:  483 001 SF - Angel Trains Cargo NV/SA, Antwerpen
Description:  TRAXX F140 DC: E483 001 was built in Kassel and the very first Traxx 2E machine to be completed. It had its roll-out in August 2006 and it construction process was monitored by personnel from the Bombardier assembly site in Vado Ligure, Italy, for training purposes. All other E483 series locomotives are built in Vado Ligure, where an official roll-out was held on June 5th, 2007. TRAXX DC locomotives have been ordered for Italy and Spain. While these locomotives were developed specifically for freight services with a 3kV DC supply voltage, they also have all the components required for passenger services (train busbar, UIC equipment, etc.). From the construction point, the 483 is a MS-version, missing the AC-equipment. Therefore a extra ballast of 8t was buildt in! This E483 unit is now leased by DB Schenker Rail Italia Services Srl., Alessandria/Italy.

Title:  186 107 - Railpool GmbH, Muenchen/Germany
Description:  TRAXX F140 MS: Bombardier finally achieved to develop one platform based on the four main pillars: DC electrics, AC electrics, multi system electrics and diesel electric locomotives. It is unique that a four system electric for line voltage 15/25kV AC + 1,5/3kV DC (D/A/CH/I/NL) and a diesel-electric locomotive have 70 percent of their parts in common. This E186 just came out of the paintshop in her new livery of Railpool. The "E" designation is because of Italien certification rules, where a "186-number" wasn't allowed.
