SNCB 1604 stands in Aachen Hbf on 10 September 1999. Eight of these three nsystem locos (3 kV DC for Belgium, 15 kV 16,7 Hz AC for Germany and 25 kV, 50Hz AC for France) were build in 1966. These machines were to be found hauling international crack express passenger services between Köln, Aachen, Liége, Brussels and Oostende, but also a hop to Paris Nord or Luxembourg was possible. Sadly, tehse machines became extinct in 2010.
