Nordic oNe-off: The six-axle EG 3100 model of the EuroSprinter family was developed<br />

to haul heavy freight trains out of the Great Belt Tunnel, even at half power and<br />

at a gradient of 15.6 per cent.<br />

Powerful package<br />

<strong>DB</strong> <strong>Schenker</strong> <strong>Rail</strong>’s most powerful and longest<br />

electric locomotive with its six axles offers<br />

a high-performance output of almost<br />

9,000 HP. The EG 3100 is a descendant of<br />

the EuroSprinter family built by Siemens for<br />

Scandinavia and tailor-made for operation<br />

in the tunnel under the Great Belt and as a<br />

two-system locomotive designed for use in<br />

Denmark, Sweden and Germany. The 13 locomotives<br />

belong to <strong>DB</strong> <strong>Schenker</strong> <strong>Rail</strong> Scandinavia,<br />

a joint venture established by <strong>DB</strong> and the<br />

Swedish rail freight operator Green Cargo.
