caption_attribution_description: Deutsch: Lokomotive des Škoda-Typs 109E. Die DB Regio Oberbayern hat acht Maschinen mit Doppelstockwagenzügen für den Regionalverkehr auf der Schnellfahrstrecke München–Nürnberg über Ingolstadt bestellt, im Gegensatz zu den an die ČD gelieferten Dreisystemlokomotiven jedoch nur für 15&#x202f;kV bei 16,7&#x202f;Hz. Ein sichtbarer Unterschied zu den Maschinen der ČD und ZSSK sind die zusätzlichen gelben UIC-Kuppeldosen. Inzwischen ist die Maschine schon eine Weile gelaufen, an den Drehgestellen ist es auf den zweiten Blick sichtbar.
context_page_description: Škoda Transportation a.s. is a Czech engineering company that continues the legacy of Škoda Works' rolling stock manufacturing that started at the end of 19th century in Pilsen. Following the first world war, the Works commenced locomotive production in a separate factory dedicated to that purpose. This factory became a separate company in the 1990s. Today, Škoda Transportation develops and manufactures electric rail vehicles for urban and railway transport.
  Škoda Transportation fully or partially owns a number of other companies active in the field of development and manufacturing of rolling stock, electric motors and related products in several European countries.
