NS Vectron (Dutch Railways)

This Siemens Vectron locomotive is used on the ÖBB Nightjet from Amsterdam to several destinations in Austria, and on the international intercity service from Amsterdam to Berlin. Two of these locomotives are leased from ELL, and have very recently been been painted in the new NS livery.

These locomotives where originally to be introduced with the December 2020 timetable change as another branch to the existing Wien/Innsbruck - Hamburg/Brussels services, with NS International hauling the train on the Amsterdam - Köln section.

However, in a view of the current epidemiological measures, the Nightjet international services were canceled and ÖBB plans to restart them between 28 April and 1 May. This also applies to the Amsterdam route, which is now expected to depart from Austria on 28 April 2021 for the first time. Concerning the Amsterdam - Berlin Intercity trains, current statement of NS is that "there is no more information about the use for these".
