The Siemens ES64U4 electric locomotives, used as series 1216 (Taurus III) by ÖBB and other European railway companies, are multi-system three-phase universal locomotives based on the technology of the Siemens EuroSprinter family. These machines reach a top speed of 230 km/h and deliver up to 6,400 kW. The Czech State Railways purchased locomotives 1216 902 and 903 in September 2019. After a thorough overhaul and repainting in the current Najbrt design, they are now primarily used in EuroCity services.
