Novelty 2026: For high-speed passenger services between Warsaw and Kraków, PKP required a new locomotive class in the late 1980s, capable of handling sustained operations at 160 km/h. The EP05 locomotives, rebuilt from EU05 units since 1973, were limited in number and had become outdated. Therefore, Pafawag in Wroc?aw developed a new locomotive type, 104E. The machines fully met expectations, and PKP acquired 45 additional units by 1997. The EP09 was deployed nationwide, almost completely replacing the EP05. Digitally switchable cab and engine room lighting via retrofittable digital decoder | Metal pantograph | Accurate livery and lettering | Attention to the structural features of the prototype | Detailed interiors | The electric locomotive features a PluX22 interface and is prepared for easy retrofitting with sound and the largest possible speaker.
