SBB Cargo International Deutschlandpiercer Electric Locomotive 193 459

In April 2025, the last two XLoad Vectron locomotives, 193 452 and 193 459, that had not yet been vinyl-wrapped, received their wraps. This brings the total number of specially vinyl-wrapped XLoad units, different from the standard design, to a total of four locomotives. After the Netherlands and Italy, Germany and Switzerland have now joined the ranks with their own Piercer-themed locomotives at SBB Cargo International. Unlike the silver Italian Piercer, locomotive 193 459 features identical designs on both sides and showcase a range of motifs familiar from Germany.
