A meeting between Christian Kern (CEO European Locomotive Leasing Group) and Wilhelm Moser (CEO DPB Group) took place today in the outdoor area of the workshop in Gramatneusiedl. During this meeting, the fully wrapped new locomotive was handed over to DPB.

The meeting in front of the finished locomotive symbolizes our ongoing cooperation and joint commitment to European rail transport.

Bahnoperator Polska received another Siemens Vectron locomotive, leased from ELL. This powerful electric locomotive operates seamlessly in Poland, Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Austria and Italy. 🇵🇱 🇩🇪 🇨🇿 🇸🇰 🇭🇺 🇷🇴 🇦🇹 🇮🇹

The newcomer was presented at Intermodal 2024 in Poland, runs on the Małaszewicze-Melzo route up to three times a week and shortens the journey time to under 60 hours!

The design of the locomotive honours Marco Polo and symbolizes the modern Silk Road. The “Marco Polo Express” connects continents and is reminiscent of historic trade routes.

We are grateful for being a partner at the Congress Intermodal in Poland, the largest event in the intermodal transport industry. 🇵🇱

We would like to announce that another exceptional locomotive has joined the fleet of our customer Bahnoperator. The Marco Polo Express, named after the historic Silk Road linking China with Europe, is a significant addition. This locomotive, named Magda in honor of Magdalena Stefaniuk, CEO of Bahnoperator Polska, will enable our client to develop intermodal transport from China to Italy, shifting road freight to rail and reducing CO2 emissions.

ELL supports this initiative and is rooting for Bahnoperator in the further development of intermodal transport!✅
