Siemens presents its new generation of 'Vectron Dual Mode light' locomotives, combining electric and diesel drive for adaptability to freight transport.

This modern hybrid locomotive can easily switch between electric and diesel operation.

Siemens points out that the Vectron Dual Mode light has been specially optimized for DB Cargo's operational requirements. What's more, the new generation of locomotives is pre-equipped for digital train operation in the future.

'On electrified sections of the line, only electric drive will be used, while on sections without catenary it will be possible to switch to conventional traction without changing locomotives. In this way, we are helping DB Cargo to implement climate-friendly supply chains right down to the last kilometer', commented Michael Peter, Managing Director of Siemens Mobility.
