Product Features and Details
The RENFE 7900/279 series
The 279 locomotives (ex 7900) were the first electric locomotives of the great family of Japanese locomotives commissioned by RENFE. This series of 16 units, acquired between 1967 and 1968, was designed for use on lines with different voltages, hence its dual voltage equipment, suitable for running with 1500 and 3000V indistinctly.
In addition to this, it was versatile, being suitable for transporting both goods and travelers. The results were so good that the company subsequently placed multiple orders for similar locomotives, resulting in the entire 289 and 269 series.
