X4E-710 celebrates 140 years of Siemens electric tyraction whilst hauling an intermodal train through Hulten on 2 September 2022.

The Aem 940 017 is in diesel mode in Renens VD, so the pantograph is also lowered.

The SBB ICN entering Lausanne train station from the sidings appears interestingly offset due to the switch geometry.

On 2 December 2020 ELL/NSR 193 766 calls at Deventer with the IC-Berlijn. These trains were hauled by NS Class 1700s, but in 2020 the first Vectrons were deployed in revenue-earning service as test. After succesfully completing the test phase, NS Reizigers leased up to twelve Vectrons from ELL and supplanted the CLass 1700s with these three-phase current machines that received a yellow with blue paint job. 
