Captured on camera by Peter Franssen at Neuwied on February 27: 513-9 (266 036), 653-2 (266 112), 561-4 (266 041), 561-3 (266 040), 561-2 (266 039) on transport behind DB 152 079 and 152 049 towards Köln-Gremberg and without any ETF stickers. It is safe to conclude that the five locos have been returned to leasing company Beacon Rail by the French operator. The five have been used by ETF to provide traction for engineering trains on the LGV Est and the LGV SEA.
