The Vectron 383.214 locomotive completed its first run in Slovenia. This was the first Budamar shipment between Slovenia and Slovakia. In the future, the company would like to follow it up and carry out further transports in Slovenian territory.

The Vectron locomotive was listed as idle on the train. The carrier was the Adria Transport, which transported the locomotive to Ljubljana. Vectron crossed the Hungarian Slovenian border at the Hodoš crossing.

This was followed by a trip to Koper, where a load was attached to the locomotive, which was then transported to Slovakia. The journey led to the Rajka station, where it was taken over by the carrier ZSSK Cargo, which will transport the train to the destination station in Bytčice.

For Budamar, this was the first contract in which it collaborated with the Adria Transport in Slovenia and the CRW in Hungary. This contract was extraordinary, no further transport of this type is planned yet. However, Budamar is focusing on the Slovenian market and would like to be more active.

Vectron 383.214 has a relatively varied history. After working in the port of Bratislava, he was transferred to ŽOS Vrútky because it had problems with batteries. After the repair, the locomotive was put back into operation, but this time in Hungary. The Vectron drove there under the Lokorail banner and was used by Central Railways.
