With many years of successful operations on the Continent the Austrian built HR BR 142 now expands its operations also to Scandinavia. This is an excellent challenger for the dominating RC loco on the Swedish railway market.
The profile of these locos is the one of reliability without making a big fuzz about themselves, and of course with the legacy of success in Austria.
