Description

Catalog description

Novelty Fall 2026: The Class 249, also known as the Vectron Dual Mode light, was developed by Siemens specifically for DB Cargo's freight transport operations. It combines the advantages of an electric locomotive with those of a diesel locomotive and can switch flexibly between the two types of traction. This eliminates the need for a locomotive change on the so-called “last mile”. Production takes place at the Siemens plant in Munich-Allach. The Class 249 is primarily used for regional and single-wagon traffic. Lightweight version of Class 249 | Digitally switchable driver's cab lighting | Digitally switchable engine room lighting | Digital coupling | Pulsed evaporator | Digitally raisable and lowerable pantograph | Opening doors, separately applied windscreen wipers | Antennas for shunting radio and driver's cab with sun blind | With shunting platform and additional shunting coupling | Easy retrofitting of a digital decoder possible | Brake hoses and coupling hooks included | Factory-fitted with full detailing on one side
