BELARUS: The first of 12 Class BCG-1 electric locomotives being built for Belarus Railway was completed at CNR’s Datong plant in December.

Ordered in October 2010 at a cost of 700m yuan, the 9·6 MW, 25 kV 50 Hz twin-section locos are derived from the HXD2 heavy-haul locomotives being assembled by CNR for the Chinese market.
