Bombardier Traxx DE stock locomotives |
|
This section describes the history of fifteen, silver 2.4MW Traxx DE locomotives. The story ended in a 15 unit locomotive pool, but started with a order from France, placed in 2008:
pre-history:
22.10.2008: SNCF Fret has awarded Bombardier with an order for 30 Traxx diesel-electric locomotives; total volume 293 million Euro. They have also taken an option for another 50 units. SNCF Fret plans to use these machines for services towards the main ports of the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. - http://www.lesechos.fr/info/transport/300303503.htm and SER
On 05.12.2008, Bombardier released the final details about the order: The transport and logistics branch of the French Railways, Société Nationale des Chemins de Fer Français (SNCF) has confirmed a contract with Bombardier Transportation to supply 80 interoperable diesel electric BOMBARDIER TRAXX F140 DE locomotives, with an initial firm order of 45 locomotives. The value of this firm order is estimated at approximately 160 million euros ($203 million US). The first delivery is scheduled for May 2010. Serie designation will be BB 76000 with prefix 4 for SNCF Fret. The complete press release here.
At the end of 2008, SNCF founded a new subsidiary for locomotive leasing; Akiem. The company was first present on the Transport Messe in Munich in May 2009. SNCF locomotives that are underutilised will become available for lease via Akiem. One can think of modern Prima electrics and diesel-electrics, but also a part of the fleet of 80 Traxx locomotives which will be delivered by Bombardier from 2010. In the beginning, 233 locomotives worth EUR 430 Million will be transferred. Their number will increase to 400 by 2013. - SNCF |

[DE] Raildox to receive second TRAXX DE
According to Rail Business, Raildox has purchased a second TRAXX DE locomotive from Bombardier. The German operator already operates former stock locomotive 76 109, which will be joined by the second TRAXX DE on November 1. The locomotive will also carry the blue/orange livery as carried by 76 109. (Rail Business)
Currently, there are only two stock locomotives left of an original batch of 15: 76 110 and 76 111. The hire of 76 110 by Pressnitztalbahn from Bombardier has recently ended with the delivery of 76 001-004 (285 101-104) to PRESS and the locomotive is in Kassel now, so it is a likely candidate to become Raildox's second TRAXX DE.

Since July, the freight operator is evaluating a Akiem Traxx DE locomotive, unit 76 101, which has a more powerful diesel engine. The Akiem machines have 2.4 MW engine output, instead of the 2.2 MW of the Macquarie ones.
Recently, the 76 101 got an ITL sticker. - SC/IS

[BE] Akiem diesel Traxx in Belgium
For the second time, Traxx DE locomotives are in Belgium and the Netherlands. Dynamic trials were already performed in 2009 and 2010, but were cancelled before completion. SNCF, the company that originally wanted such locomotives for services in Germany, Belgium, France and the Netherlands, has been re-negotiating their order ever since. The first weeks of 2013 seem to be a fresh (re)start for the diesel engines, that are nowadays sporting the silver livery of Akiem, the leasing company of SNCF/Geodis. And fresh it is.
Unit 76 102 is on the BetuweRoute in NL, as we showed yesterday. Unit 76 002 and 76 101 arrived in Belgium on 11.01.2013. On 15. and 16.01.2013 both machines ran on the Athus-Meuse line from Lacuisine to Epioux vv. Track no.B was put out of order for the test train of Belgorail. The test train was a so called "rame encadrée" with a locomotive on either side of the composition. On the north side unit 76 002, towards the south NMBS/SNCB 1346 was up front. - MS

update 2011|06|19
[DE/BE/NL/FR] fifteen Traxx DE for AKIEM
An update on the SNCF/AKIEM plans with Traxx DE locomotives. Once there was the plan to order 80 locomotives. This resulted in a initial firm order for 45 Traxx DE units, placed at the end of 2008. With these machines, SNCF wanted to conquer the international freight corridors to the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. However, since then much has changed. A crisis. Take-overs. Market consolidation. Electrics have taken over.
Homologation trials with the first BB 76000s however did start in 2009 and 2010. No less than four prototypes were built for this purpose. But since the summer of 2010 it is silent.
In today's railways one can read now what the possible future plans with the BB 76000s will be. Most likely the order will be reduced to fifteen units, all to be delivered to AKIEM, the leasing department of the SNCF/Geodis group. Eleven of them are to be homologated for Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. The remaining four can run in France, Belgium and the Netherlands. All will be equipped with ETCS, so that services on the Dutch BetuweRoute are possible.
This is supported by the fact that a BB 76000, unit 76002, was recently present at the Munich Transport Logistic fair, in the livery of AKIEM. - Today's Railways

[DE] Transport Messe in Munich
Some snapshots from the Transport Messe in Munich last week. Most interesting was the DB announcing its purchase of 65 Traxx MS electrics. The exhibited E186 173 in ECR livery is from the first batch of 20 (E186 161-180) which belongs to this order. ECR, EuroCargoRail, is a subsidiary of DB Schenker Rail UK (former EWS). What the exact configuration of the remaining 45 machines will be and in which colours they will be painted, is unknown. By the way, in Munich also scale models were seen of a Traxx DE in SNCF Fret livery and a Traxx-DC for GTS from Italy. - KAR/HdJ/DB
