But for the new number system and colours from 1968, 111 112 might have looked like this upon introduction: Train Rental has a nice fleet of ex-DB electrics Class 111 and gave them a variety of colours. Like this quasi retro E11 112/111 112 with the RB 37 at Kaarst-Broicherheide on 23 July 2025. THe 111 112 wore neither the old E11 numbers nor the old blue.

On 24 March 2025 Smart Rail 111 213 looks meazled when calling at Rheinhausen with another replacement train deputising for a defective ultramodern high-tech multiple unit. DB has sold many electrics Class 111 to private operators like Smart Rail, BayernBahn and TRI and deploys not only the last examples with DB Regio in traffic red, but also in retro colour schemes with the phrase Kaufe oder miete Mich (Buy por lease me).

On 22 January 2025 TRI 111 054 hauls the famous RB37 towards Neu8ss Hbf through a well-known photo spot at Kaarst-Broicherseite. In 2025 TRI nevber were shy of some practical jokes, like this one. When DB ordered their 227 electrics CLass 111 from 1974, most were delivered wqith turqouis-blue and ivory colours -apart from 111 111-188 that got grey with an orange waist band for the S-Bahn in the Ruhr Area. But they never wore the 1950s and 1960s blue of the fast train locos of DB. That didn't deterr TRI a slight bit when repainting their 111 0564 in this quasi-retro colour scheme. On 145 041 they did the same kind of joke, giving these locos the 1950s look of freight engines.

TRI operates many replacement trains in Germany with loco hauled stock when the newly ordered EMUs/BEMUs/DEMUs are -again- malfunctioning. On 20 August 2026 ex-DB 111 130 pushes an RB to Bottrop Hbf out of Oberhausen Hbf. Class 111 entered service with DB in 1974 and are now being disposed of -and speedily bought and reliveried by private operators like TRI and Smart rail.

TRI 111 074 hauls a replacement train into Hannover Hbf on 18 September 2026. As is the case in more German Länder, Lower Saxony (Niedersachsen) sees her partof failing modern MUs, necessitating the deployment of older stock with lco haulage by TRI and WFL -much to the joy of German and foreign railway fans.
