Rail Experts 9901 -ex-LOCON 9901- hauls a hisatoric EMUs, flanked by two box wagons, through Wijchen toward Maastricht for maintenance on the EMU and passes through Wijchen on 10 NOvember 2019. During LOCON days, eight former NS Class 1600/1800 carried this nice livery and after LOCON-Benelux' downfall some electrics that were bought by RXP and RFO continued to carry this livery. But in 2026, RXP 9901 is the only locomotive remaining with this livery. 
