The locomotive, built by Siemens as the 927th “Vectron,” underwent test runs while still designated 91 80 6192 020-6 D-SIEAG—it was renumbered before being transferred to Romania. Incidentally, there is also a 192 003 in Germany at InfraLeuna—though it bears the NVR number 91 80 6192 003-2 D-LEUNA.
