| Remarks & Notes |
| SBB Cargo leases 35 Siemens “Vectron” locomotives for 8 years from 2024 via the lessor NorthRail and financed by Bank Reichmuth in Lucerne. The first machines have now been in Switzerland for a few weeks and training of locomotive crews has begun at some locations. Scheduled freight trains are being hauled. 193 # 060 pulls freight train 61073 from Lausanne shunting yard to Sion between Rivaz and St-Saphorin. The locomotive for 15000 V 16.7 Hz AC weighs 86 tons, has an output of 6400 kW and is licensed in Switzerland, Germany and Austria. There are two pantographs visible on the roof. In front (lowered) with wider contact bar for Germany and Austria, in the rear for Switzerland with shorter contact bar.
In Switzerland, a maximum of 120 km/h is permitted according to train series A. The full designation is: 91 80 6193 060-1 D-NRAIL. This 35 "Vectrons" will replace mainly the worn out Re 420 (Re 4/4 II) used by the Cargo division and have about 1/3 more traction power.
