The locomotive was first exhibited in a railway exhibition in the German capital Berlin in September last year with 3,062 participants from 61 countries. With the project, Turkey joined a small group of nations to become the fourth country - after France, Japan and China - to have acquired hybrid shunting locomotive technology.
