Other railways
There are some units also existing on Serbian Railways, where the designated class number is class 712. A few units are in operation in Macedonia as well, with two of the units, named Heracleia and Skopje, serving the Heracleia Express on the Skopje-Bitola route. The 2 units are equipped with Wi-Fi internet, widescreen TV-s and a cafe bar. All the units differ from Serbian and Croat units by having 3 cars and a stronger Cummins engine, adapted for the mountainous Macedonian railways.
