The Siemens Vectron MS - 193 110 "Zugersee" (91 80 6193 110-4 D-Rpool) of Railpool GmbH (Munich), leased to SBB Cargo International AG, is passing through Kirchen/Sieg station towards Siegen on June 9, 2026, with a combined transport train operated by HUPAC. The SIEMENS Vectron MS (X4E) was built in 2023 by Siemens Mobility in Munich-Allach under factory number 23293. The multisystem locomotive, designed with 6,400 kW, is executed in the A22 variant and thus has the approvals and corresponding country packages for Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, and the Netherlands (D / A / CH / I / NL). It is the 300th locomotive of Railpool. 

The 185 028-8 (91 80 6185 028-8 D-DB) of DB Cargo AG, also approved for France, is running with a coil train through Kirchen/Sieg towards Siegen on June 9, 2026, presumably heading to Kreuztal. It is interesting that both pantographs for 15 kV, 16.7 Hz AC are raised on the contact wire. The TRAXX F140 AC1 was built in 2001 by ADtranz (ABB Daimler-Benz Transportation GmbH) in Kassel under factory number 33427. It is approved for Germany and France. Thus, it is designed as a dual-system locomotive with the electrical systems 15 kV, 16.7 Hz AC and 25 kV, 50 Hz AC. 
