(6)According to point 7.4.2.2 of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/1695, existing vehicles should be equipped with ETCS. However, Stadler E6000 vehicles do not have ETCS/ERTMS equpiment installed on board. Therefore, during process of vehicle type authorization (number 1-075-0005-8-001-001), the European Railway Agency set specific restrictions of use. Based on those restrictions, at the present time those locomotives cannot be operated on lines equipped with class A (ETCS/ERTMS) signalling system, in the corridors defined in Annex I of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/6note and in the lines ensuring the connections to the main European ports, marshalling yards, freight terminals and freight transport areas defined in Article 2.1 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/6.
