SNCF Class BB 27300
From TrainSpottingWorld, for Rail fans everywhere
The SNCF Class BB 27300 "Prima" electric locomotives are currently being built by Alstom. These locomotives are the passenger equivalent of the freight-only Class BB 27000 and are equipped for push-pull operation. Sixty of these locomotives, numbered 27301-27360, have been ordered by SNCF and STIF for suburban passenger service in the Île-de-France region around Paris, notably pulling VB2N carriages.
