Fictive operator, Trans Polar Railways, with its many routes in Northern
Europe,
Russia and Scandinavia, utilises a large number of locomotive types, seen
here is
the type 2E2-7, nos 733 and 734.
The 2E2-7 is a more aerodynamically styled 2E6, which shares its heritage
from the ES64
type locomotive. The 2E2-7 is used primarily on HST work on the Northern
Lights service, alongside various types of Orbis, ICX and TGX HST sets. The
colour scheme depicted here is the new dayglow scheme.
