On June 30, 2022, Budamar Group from Slovakia took delivery of its first 'bridge' locomotive. Until the end of that year, Railcolor Design developed five different designs within one theme to highlight five famous bridges in Slovakia - connecting the design to Budamar Group's slogan, the “Architects of Logistics”.
We gave the locomotive a distinctive new look without modifying the locomotive's standard white/grey paint scheme. The design is optimised to mask the areas where dirt attaches the easiest to the locomotive.
Railcolor's core values:
383 218
The design combines high-performance, digitally printed adhesives with handmade curves ad surfaces, sleek, balanced, powerful.
Each of the five locomotives has a theme, with a corresponding landscape, depicting a stylized image of a bridge and its direct surroundings (and trains when possible).
383 216
383 217
383 220 & 383 219
After bridges come the castles - series 2
A uncommon decision: Lets give the next batch of locomotives a completely different design. Same slogan, different story, another five machines. No more bridges, but castles instead:
RSL 383 221 = Bratislavský hrad (= castle of Bratislava)
RSL 383 222 = Oravský Hrad (= castle of Orava)
383 222
383 221
