The
SNCFClass BB 47000"Prima"electric locomotive is a 6,000
kW (8,000
hp) locomotive, built by
Alstom. This locomotive is the quadruple-voltage version of the
Class BB 27000. So far, only one locomotive, numbered 47001, has been built and was tested by
Fret SNCF with a view for further orders. In 2006 it became clear that SNCF wouldn't order this version anymore and the locomotive had passed on to Alstom as a permanent test bed locomotive for testing different Alstom technologies. In 2009, the locomotive was devoid of all technical components. Its bogies were re-used by the
Prima II-prototype.[1] The locomotive is now stored outside Alstom's Belfort plant.
