The akiem 64 F4 082 (91 80 189 982-2 D-AKIIEM) is waiting in Lausanne with a track-laying machine for its imminent onward journey toward Vevey. Since the DB 185 took over the "Novelis" trains, the already rare operations of the BR 189 in the Lausanne area have become very rare, making this aktiem 64 F4 082 (91 80 189 982-2 D-AKIIEM) an unusual motif.

CD Cargo mercenary 186 376 stands on 2 March 2025 at Amersfoort. Since 2021 CD Cargo has gained some interesting workings in the Netherlands. Freights to/from Poland via the Czech republic are almost always hauled by Akiem-186s, but some trains, originating/ending in Czechia see much more interesting traction in the guise of CDC Vectrons Class 383. 
