From left to right: TRAXX F140 AC2 - 185 580 of Crossrail/Switzerland, SBB TRAXX F140 AC1 - 482 025, the black MRCE - Mitsui Rail Capital Europe BV owned TRAXX F140 AC2 - 185 563, leased by German rail4chem Eisenbahnverkehrsgesellschaft mbH (part of Captrain) and behind the TRAXX F140 AC1 - 185 541 of Hannover Mobilien Leasing GmbH/Germany, hired by rail4chem in the European Bulls livery, an alliance of seven European rail freight companies.
