Creating Corridors Creating Corridors

With liberalized markets, widely varying national requirements and changing customer needs, today rail-based passenger and freight transportation has to be more flexible than ever. New paths are needed – both in terms of ideas and geography.

2 ­­Vectron – the new for those who want to – and have to – meet Europe’s current and future requirements and transportation needs. Vectron­ was developed based on information from interviews with many different operators, and on experience gained from more than 1,900 Eurosprinters and Eurorunners in operation. Ensured viability into the future, investment security, environmental compatibility and fungibility were most important to operators. ­­­Vectron responds to these needs by combining proven strengths with future-oriented strategies and innovations. Come aboard and discover the locomotive that forges new paths – to ensure a successful future for your freight, regional or traffic.

3 Planning with more certainty

Europe is changing. The choice of the right locomotive today will dic- tate your success tomorrow. Equip yourself for a changing future – with ­Vectron, your plans and investment are secure. After all, ­Vectron com- bines mature and proven technology with market-oriented modular- ity and flexibility. This translates into a new freedom of motion in all phases of your vehicle’s lifecycle.

The ­Vectron DE combines proven and innovative technologies, and inte- grates experience from other applications. As the successor to the prov- en Eurorunner locomotive series, the ­Vectron will also set new standards in environmental friendliness. Its EU97/IIIB diesel engine makes it the trendsetter in emission reduction.

All this makes the ­Vectron traction motors are easy on rails. DE especially maintenance-friendly.

Optimized balance between costs and environmental protection. High-perfor- mance capacitors replace heavy, environ- mentally harmful starter batteries. Braking energy is consequently used to power aux- iliary systems and the train energy supply (head end power) in passenger transporta- tion. Depending on overall conditions, this permits up to 10 percent energy savings. The result is a substantial improvement in the environmental balance, with a simulta- neous reduction in operating costs.
