With the Vectron Dual Mode, HERING Bahndienste is operating a locomotive for the first time that can run both electrically under overhead lines and with a diesel engine. The dual-mode locomotive will be used for transport operations throughout Germany, particularly for transferring our heavy rail-bound machinery.
Its key strength becomes especially apparent on the last mile and in construction-site traffic:
sidings and freight access tracks at construction sites are often not electrified. While purely electric locomotives cannot operate independently on these sections, the Vectron Dual Mode can switch to diesel operation whenever required. Once back under overhead lines, it continues in electric mode. This eliminates time-consuming locomotive changes, enables flexible transport chains, simplifies construction-site logistics and supports reliable, cost-effective project delivery.
The locomotive is the first Vectron Dual Mode G13 approved for operation in both Germany and Austria.
HERING offers RENS-192 flat wagons for rental—robust, four-axle bogie wagons designed to meet a wide range of transport requirements in railway construction logistics.
