The BB 22200 is a french electric locomotive series which can be used on the DC (1,5 kV) network as well as the AC network (25 kV 50 Hz) of the SNCF. The design of the locomotives with the so-called "nez cassé" ("broken nose") comes from the hand of Frenchman Paul Arzens, who was responsible for the design of several SNCF locomotives at the time. From 1976 until 1986 Alstom built a total of 205 locomotives in six series. Due to the multi-system capabilities and the design as an universal locomotive, the BB 22200 can haul goods and passenger trains on nearly every regular electrically powered line in France.
