Trans Polar 2E2-7 power car (fantasy - Trans Polar is a ficticious company that serves Scandinavia and Russia),
all new HST power car for use on the lucrative Northern Lights service that runs between Oslo and Copenhagen.
Built by Orbis engineering, the 2E2-7 has some features of the Orbis R300 HST set, though some operators use tilt-body
class 2E2-7's, Trans Polar Railways has gone for more conventional running gear in order to have stock interchangability
the sister class is the 2E3-2. like ALL of the TPR locomotive fleet, they are multi voltage capable with all the
electrical needs being provided through one pantograph.
Being power cars for high speed trains, the rear end of the locomotives have a walk through connection to mate up with
the passenger stock that is in tow.
