At Dijon depot: My favorite "beauty" of SNCF engines. The SNCF Class BB 36000 locomotives are a class of triple voltage 4 axle Bo'Bo' electric locomotives built by GEC-Alstom (later Alstom) between 1996 and 2001 for SNCF. Initially only to be a tri-voltage version of BB 26000 locomotives, it was further developed and became eventually a completely new locomotive type with power output of 5600 kW / 7500 hp. The first production batch of 30 units (in red livery) mostly operate on French-Belgian freight corridors. |
