Our TRAXXes Hetmans

The project called „The purchase of 11 new two-cabin electric locomotives intended to run the drift of passenger bidirectional trains consisting of push-pull carriages and providing the services for four years from the day of receiving each locomotive and the training of the ordering employees” includes the delivery of 11 modern locomotives in 2011. The locomotive is in Koleje Mazowieckie colours and it will perfectly match the carriages which are already used.

These carriages are also made by the company Bombardier Transportation GmbH and they belong to a „push-pull” type, which means that from the time of handing over locomotives TRAXX P160 DC to operation, the train will consist of a locomotive, middle carriages and a control carriage with a driver's cab joined at the end. The locomotive traditionally will pull the train in one direction, but in case of a route change there will be no need to change locomotives. An engine driver will just take a seat in a cab of a control carriage and thence he will be steer the locomotive. Such a solution will enable to save a lot of time.

The body of the locomotive Traxx P160 DC after presentation in Wrocław was transported to the assembly plant Bombardiera in Italy and it is there where the final installation will take place. After that all 11 Traxxes will come to Masovia.
