Remarks & Notes |
On the line between Jesenice and Nova Gorica car shuttle trains are running through the longest tunnel in Slovenia. The trip through the tunnel lasts 10 minutes. The trains are hauled by diesel locomotives of the class 664. The JŽ 664 locomotives were a class of diesel locomotives operated by Yugoslav Railways. They are an GM-EMD export model of type EMD G26, subclass 664-0 was built by EMD, subclass 664-1 was built by Đuro Đaković from 1972 until 1984. After the breakup of Yugoslavia the locomotives were split. The 664-0 subclass were split between Croatia as HŽ series 2062 (60 units), and Serbia (5 units); the 664-1 subclass were transferred to the Slovenian Railways (as SŽ series 664), 20 units. The locomotives of the class 664 are nicknamed "Reagan" in Slovenia. |
