context_page_description: The OSE class 220, also known as DE2000 or Marlboro, due to the coloring of the front, reminiscent of the packaging colors of the homonymous tobacco industry, is a series of diesel-electric locomotives operated by TRAINOSE and RCLG and is part of the OSE fleet. It was built in 1998 at the ADTranz factories in Kassel, Germany, as the A.471 series, but in 2003 OSE acquired another batch. The locomotives were put into operation by OSE after the completion of their construction.
  In total, there are 36 such locomotives, numbered 220 001-220 036, of which the first 26 were originally numbered A.471-A.496. All of the locomotives were designed by the manufacturers while the final assembly was made in Oerlikon, Switzerland. They are designed for intercity trains, high-speed trains as well as freight trains.
  They are based on the Octeon model of ADtranz, and feature similar features to the Italian E412 and PKP EU43, and have the same engines with the AEG DE IC-2000N.
context_section_description: The coloration of the diesel-electric locomotives (DE) consists of a white rectangle with a blue one in half red, covering the largest surface of the vehicles. In the masks, there is a white triangle, hence the nickname "Marlboro," from the well-known tobacco industry.
