Description

Catalog description

Novelty 2026: In 2019, Siemens Mobility introduced the Vectron Dual Mode, a dual-power locomotive equipped with both a diesel engine and a high-voltage system for drawing power from overhead lines. This allows the locomotives to operate independently of the catenary, offering greater flexibility and more resource-efficient operation across the full range of applications. Siemens offers the locomotives in two variants: the Vectron Dual Mode, designated as BR 248 in Germany, and the Vectron Dual Mode Light, designated as BR 249. Digitally switchable cab and engine room lighting via retrofitting a digital decoder | Control desk lighting | One metal pantograph | Fine fan grilles | Freely rotating roof fan | Detailed bogies | View into the engine room | Freely mounted windshield wipers and handrails
