Diesel Locomotive BB 475441 FRET SNCF logo Carmillon Ep VI Digital son HO Os.kar OS7510DCCS

Built in 68 units between 2010 and 2012 by Alstom and Siemens (motorisation), these traction units meet the need for additional power to remove heavy freight trains and avoid using a BB 75000 unit.

The engine's power was increased from 2,000 (BB 75000 - BB 75100 - BB 75300) to 2,400 kW by the adoption of a new combustion engine, the MTU 4000 R 43.

The bore was increased for the same cubic capacity, resulting in an increase in weight and volume. The exhaust tailpipe was also relocated, necessitating a modification to the roof. The overall silhouette also changed.
