HU MAV 1047 470 Taurus

Together with GySEV, the MAV ordered ten high performance locomotives of the type ES64U2 by Siemens in September 2001. Because the MAV 1047 series is identical to the OBB 1116 series, it was possible, that 8 months after order placement, the 1047 001 already could be presented. Between March and November 2002 the complete batch was delivered. They are used for all sorts of trains in Hungary and Austria, but are also approved for Germany. This is possible because they have the EVM120 (Hungary) and Indusi (Germany and Austria) train signalling and safety systems and they have a traction system for 15kV AC and 25kV AC. The locomotives are mainly used for the IC- and EC-services between Vienna and Budapest.
