DetailsIn 2019, Siemens Mobility introduced the Vectron Dual Mode, a versatile dual-power locomotive equipped with both a diesel engine and high-voltage systems to draw power from overhead lines. This innovative design allows the locomotive to operate independently of the contact wire, offering greater flexibility and improved resource efficiency across a wide range of applications. Siemens provides the Vectron Dual Mode in two variants: the standard Vectron Dual Mode, designated as BR 248 in Germany, and the lighter Vectron Dual Mode Light, known as BR 249. Both models exemplify cutting-edge technology and adaptability in modern rail transport. - Dual-Power Capability: Combines diesel engine with overhead line electric power for unmatched operational flexibility.
- Independent Operation: Not reliant on contact wire availability, enhancing route versatility.
- Two Variants: Available as BR 248 (standard) and BR 249 (light) models in Germany.
- Resource Efficient: Designed to optimise energy use across diverse rail services.
- Modern Technology: Represents the forefront of contemporary locomotive engineering.
This detailed model accurately captures the innovative design and advanced technology of the Vectron Dual Mode locomotive, making it a must-have for enthusiasts of modern European railways. |
