It is also equipped with a destination display (optional for electric Vectron locomotives too). InnoTrans 2010, Berlin, September 2010. |
| Diesel-electric Siemens Vectron DE 92 80 1247 901-2 D-PCW. This same prototype has been here four years ago in a different decoration and has not found a customer for series production since then - even though its electric counterpart is selling fine, and the predecessor (ER20) can be found in many European countries. Maybe the problem is that the Vectron DE is heavier than the ER20, built on the platform of the electric locomotive designed for mainline traffic, so it's not suitable for branch lines? We will see, Siemens has not yet given up trying to market the DE version. The front with destination display seen 2010 has been replaced by the standard version for freight locomotives.

| Diesel-electric Siemens Vectron DE 92 80 1247 901-2 D-PCW. For this year they designed a "cybercheetah" design. It's tradition for Siemens to paint factory owned locomotives in "household appliance white" ... InnoTrans 2014, Berlin, 2014-09-23 to 26. |
| Diesel-electric Siemens Vectron DE 92 80 1247 901-2 D-PCW. Here you see the "Balfour Beatty kids" - at least they all wore orange vests of Balfour Beatty and went everywhere as a group, filling up locomotive cabs at once. InnoTrans 2014, Berlin, 2014-09-23 to 26. |
| Diesel-electric Siemens Vectron DE 92 80 1247 901-2 D-PCW. Front view, identical to the electric version. InnoTrans 2014, Berlin, 2014-09-23 to 26. |
| The second built Diesel Vectron 92 80 1247 902-0 D-PCW is stored at the "fitness track" in Leoben Hbf, coupled to a much older locomotive, the 92 81 2143 032-8 A-RTS. 2015-09-11. |
