The SNCF Class BB 66700 is a class of centre cab diesel locomotives rebuilt from the earlier Class BB 66000. They were regeared and had ballast weights added at Nevers depot to enable them to deal with heavier freight wagons. [1] 34 locomotives were converted between 1985 and 1989. [2]

The BB 22200 is a class of electric locomotives in service with the French railways SNCF, built by Alstom between 1976 and 1986. They are a dual voltage version of the BB 7200 and BB 15000 Nez Cassé classes.
The SNCF Class BB 27300 is an electric locomotive. There are 67 BB 27300 locomotives, built as part of the Prima range by Alstom. The first BB 27300 were delivered starting in 2006. Painted in the blue and white livery of Transilien, the brand name for the SNCF network around Paris, these locomotives are the passenger equivalent of the freight-only SNCF Class BB 27000 and are equipped for push-pull operation on suburban passenger services in the Île-de-France region around Paris, working with refurbished VB2N double-deck carriages.
The SNCF BB 20011 and SNCF BB 20012 were electric locomotives used for testing, built by Alsthom between 1985 and 1986. The two locomotives were the synchronous dual-voltage prototypes for Class BB 26000.
The SNCF Class BB 9200 1500 V DC electric locomotives were built by Schneider-Jeumont/CEM between 1958-1964. 92 of them were built, the last being withdrawn in 2014.
The SNCF class BB 15000 is a class of 25 kV 50 Hz electric locomotives built by Alstom and MTE between 1971 and 1978. Initially 65 locomotives strong, the class was widely deployed on the whole French 25 kV network before being replaced by TGV trains when the LGV Est went into service in 2007.
The SNCF Class BB 60000 are a class of 4 axle heavy shunting and light freight diesel–electric locomotives built at the Vossloh España works in Valencia. Since the class is primarily used as a freight locomotive the class is commonly referred to as SNCF BB 460000.
The SNCF Class BB 8500 class are part of a series of electric locomotives built by Alsthom for SNCF. They are the direct current version of the 25 kV alternating current SNCF BB 17000 and dual system SNCF BB 25500.
The SNCF BB 75000 are 4 axle, Bo′Bo′, diesel electric locomotives ordered in 2000 by SNCF for freight operations to renew its aging fleet.
The SNCF locomotives BB 101 to BB 180 were a class of 1500 V DC 4-axle electric locomotives originally built for the Chemin de fer de Paris à Orléans in the 1920s. The class were built as part of an order for 200 locomotives of similar types and were initially used on the newly electrified Paris - Vierzon line before being displaced by the SNCF 2D2 5500 class.
The SNCF locomotives BB 1425 to BB 1440 were a class of 1500 V DC 4 axle electric locomotives originally built for the Chemin de fer de Paris à Orléans in the 1920s.
The locomotive SNCF BB 10003 was an experimental prototype locomotive converted from a SNCF BB 15000 electric locomotive and used to develop the use of asynchronous induction traction motors.
SNCF BB 69000 were a pair of two prototype high-power diesel-hydraulic locomotives, numbered BB 69001 and BB 69002. They were built at the same time, and for comparison with, as a diesel-electric version, CC 70000. The use of hydraulic transmission saved 30 tons in weight and enabled the locomotives to run on four axles instead of the six axles of the diesel-electric.
The SNCF Class BB 9400 was a class of Bo'Bo' electric locomotives of SNCF. they were used to haul L’Aquilon, a high-speed passenger train between Paris, Dijon and Lyon-Perrache. The locomotives were given the nickname "Vespa", as they were very lightweight. They were one of a series of locomotives referred to as "BB Jacquemin", as they used bogies designed by engineer André Jacquemin. The locomotive itself was designed by noted French railway designer Paul Arzens. In later years they hauled passenger trains on the difficult Béziers–Neussargues line.
The BB 25200 is a class of electric locomotives in service with the French railways SNCF, built by Materiel de Traction Electrique (MTE) between 1967 and 1976. They are dual voltage locomotives working off both 1500 V DC and 25 kV 50 Hz AC. Designed by André Jacquemin, the class is a development of the earlier BB 25100 and BB 25150 locomotives with a higher top speed, being capable of 160 km/h (99 mph). It is the dual voltage equivalent of the BB 9200 and BB 16000 classes.
The SNCF Class BB 63400 was a class of centre cab diesel locomotives built for SNCF between 1959 and 1960 by Brissonneau et Lotz. The class consisted of 23 locomotives numbered 63401– 63423. Similar to the more powerful Class BB 63500, the construction was financed under the Eurofima arrangements. Initially they were based at Nantes for use as yard pilots. In later years they were transferred elsewhere as electrification took over. The class was withdrawn from service by 2015.
The SNCF Class BB 63500 are a class of centre cab diesel locomotives built for SNCF between 1956 and 1971 by Brissonneau & Lotz. They are a slightly more powerful version of the BB 63400. A total of 580 locomotives were built. Four units, numbers BB 63896, BB 63901, BB 63902 and BB 63906, were equipped with electric train heating and based at La Plaine for operating trip workings of passenger trains between Paris Gare du Nord and Paris Gare de Lyon round the Petit Ceinture. Three batches, numbered BB 63721–BB 63750, BB 63811–BB 63855 and BB 63981–BB 64020, totalling 115 locomotives, were equipped for multiple working.
The SNCF Class BB 66000 is a class of 318 centre cab diesel locomotives built for SNCF by a consortium of CAFL, CEM, Alsthom, Fives-Lille and SACM between 1960 and 1968.
The SNCF Class BB 66400 is a class of centre cab mixed traffic diesel locomotives. The class is a development of the BB 66000 with 3 phase electric transmission. The 106 locomotives were built for SNCF by a consortium of CAFL, CEM, Alsthom, Fives-Lille and SACM between 1968 and 1971. They are 14.972 m (49.12 ft) long and weigh 64 t. The prime mover is a MGO V16BSHR diesel engine developing 1,030 kW (1,380 hp). The maximum speed is 120 km/h (75 mph).
The SNCF Class BB 66600 is a small class of centre cab diesel locomotives rebuilt from the earlier Class BB 66000 by fitting a slightly more powerful engine. The locomotives were 14.898 m (48.88 ft) long and weighed 71 t. Powered by an SEMT 12PA4 diesel engine developing 1,100 kW (1,500 hp), they had a maximum speed of 120 km/h (75 mph). All members of the class were fitted for multiple working and all but two had electric train heating.
