As an ambassador locomotive, it is not only a visual eye-catcher, but also a coveted collector's item for model train enthusiasts.

Prototype: From the Dutch State Railways to Railexperts

Locomotive 9902 has a long history, which began in 1981 when it was delivered to the Dutch State Railways (NS) under the number 1616. After the separation of passenger and freight traffic, it was assigned to the NS-Cargo freight division. In the course of the takeover of NS-Cargo by DB Cargo, the locomotive remained in service. However, the last class 1600 locomotives were taken out of service by DB Cargo in 2020.

Six of these locomotives, including the former 1616, were sold to RXP Tracte B.V., an asset company of the Railexperts Group. As a sign of continuity with its sister locomotive, Locon 9901, the locomotive was now designated 9902. Today, the locomotive is used both for its own train services and for leasing to other railroad undertakings (RUs), making it a versatile and sought-after vehicle on the European rail network.
