Description

Catalog description

Novelty 2025: With the Vectron Dual Mode, Siemens Mobility presented a dual-power locomotive in 2019 that has both a diesel engine and high-voltage equipment for drawing power from the overhead line. This means that the locomotives are not dependent on the contact wire and can be used more flexibly and resource-efficiently across the entire range of applications. Siemens offers the locomotives in two variants: the Vectron Dual Mode, known in Germany as the BR 248, and the Vectron Dual Mode light, known as the BR 249. Digital switching of drivers cab lighting and engine room lighting by retrofitting a digital decoder | Drivers desk lighting | A metal scissor pantograph | Fine fan grilles | Freely rotating fan wheel on the roof | Detailed bogies | View into the engine room | Freestanding windscreen wipers and handrails
