SNCF Class BB 9200 SNCF Class BB 9200 The SNCF Class BB 9200 1500 V DC electric locomotives were built by Schneider-Jeumont/CEM between 1958-1964. 92 of them were built and 20 remain. These train engines are products of the Jacquemin product family of train engines ("locomotives"), offspring of the prototype BB 9004, and named after the engineer who designed their bogies. The locomotives were designed for a maximum speed of and were the first such train engines in France. In the late sixties, a small group of train engines was converted for operation, hauling prestige TEE trains like the "Capitole" - these train engines
SNCF Class BB 10003 SNCF Class BB 10003 The locomotive SNCF BB 10003 was an experimental prototype locomotive converted from a SNCF BB 15000 unit and used to develop the use of asynchronous induction traction motors. The locomotive BB 10003 was created from an earlier experimental machine BB 7003 in 1982. It was used to test the use of aysnchronous induction motors in locomotives. From 1986-7 the locomotive was used in experiments testing the viability of a diesel electric locomotive with asynchronous traction motors; the locomotive was coupled to a remotorised SNCF CC 72000 locomotive which acted as an electrical generator. In 1990/1 the
