About the 9902:
Locomotive 9902 was delivered to the Netherlands State Railways in 1981 as the 1616. When passenger and freight transport were separated, the locomotive was assigned to the NS Cargo freight transport division. NS Cargo was later taken over by DB-Cargo. In 2020, the last locomotives of the 1600 class were taken out of service at DB Cargo. The last six existing locomotives were sold to RXP Tracte B.V., an asset company of the Railexperts Group. With a nod to the already existing ex Locon 9901, the 1616 was re-designated the 9902. The locomotive is used for the company's own transport and is also hired out to other railway transport companies.
Railexperts is a provider of passenger and freight transport services. It tractions special passenger trains and performs locomotive and railcar transfers for third parties as well as last-mile services in freight transport. The services also include certification test runs and a 24/7 control centre that monitors transport operations for different rail transport companies.
