Details
In December 2024, the Belgian State Railways introduced new direct services between Brussels and Rotterdam. For this operation, SNCB/NMBS leased locomotives 186 119–122 from Alpha Trains, previously operated by the Dutch State Railways, supplementing their existing fleet. These locomotives were delivered in the current SNCB/NMBS livery, combining modern performance with a visually striking appearance. They represent a key element of cross-border passenger operations and are of great interest to railway enthusiasts and model collectors focused on contemporary European traction.
