The electric locomotives of the EuroSprinter family from Siemens are known in Germany as the 182 series. With an output of 6,400 kW, they can reach a top speed of 230 km/h.
As of 2009, DB Fernverkehr had a shortage of high-speed locomotives for EuroCity traffic. The solution was to rent ES 64 U2 (BR 182) from MRCE. Since the timetable change in 2010, the EuroCity pair 6/7 has been pulled by one of these locomotives.
