MRCE
DISPOLOK LOCO PACK
Following the turn of the 21st Century, a handful of Siemens’ locomotives, which
had recently been shipped to their buyers, were returned owing to technical
issues found upon entrance into service. While not ideal, Siemens took it in
their stride to repair the faults and ensure the locomotives were ready for
service proper, and to avoid working at a loss, took full advantage of the
European rail transport deregulation.
The
deregulation would allow the leasing of traction and rolling stock to
newly-formed private companies, instead of them having to purchase and maintain
such stock outright. It was this that saw Siemens set up “Dispolok”, a
locomotive-leasing division that would put their returned traction to profitable
use. The project was a success, and soon more locomotives would be built
specifically with leasing in mind.
Before
long however, Siemens, who was retiring from the leasing business, reached an
agreement for Mitsui Rail Capital Europe to acquire the brand in 2006. By this
point, around 100 locomotives were in the Yellow & Grey Dispolok brand, and MRCE
added to that by ordering from Siemens around the time of their acquirement of
the brand. Two years later, and the company was renamed to MRCE Dispolok, which
saw a new Black livery added to locomotives. The brand was further changed to
MRCE GmbH in 2013.
Over
the years, a multitude of locomotive types have been leased by MRCE/Dispolok to
provide operators a reliable choice of traction, that is able to put down as
much power required for any duty. The fleet includes Siemens’ very own ES 64 F,
F4 and U2 electric locomotives, and their ER20 Eurorunners. Additionally, EMD
JT42CWR’s have been a recent popular addition, this locomotive is better known
as the EMD Class 66, a Europe-wide favourite with over 650 produced.
