The NS Class 1600 is a type of B-B electric locomotive built by Alsthom between 1980 and 1983 based on the SNCF Class BB 7200, and in use by the Dutch Railways since 1981. When in 1999 the cargo section became a separate company (Railion), the locomotives that moved over to Railion kept their old number (1601-1637). The locomotives that went to NS-Reizigers (1638-1658) had their numbers raised by 200, thus keeping their number but now in the 1800 series. In later years 10 more of the 1600 loco’s where sold to NS-Reizigers and subsequently renumbered to the 1800 series. The 1800 series was now 1823, 1824 and 1826 to 1858. Retaining the last 2 digits of their number. #1600 #1800 #1855
