Vossloh G 400 B

The Vossloh G400B is a B diesel-hydraulic shunting locomotive. The G400B is technically identical to the G322, except for some details like different final drives. It was renamed as G400B to fit in the new numbering scheme used in the 4th generation programme.[1]

Operations

Vossloh built 6 stock locomotives for leasing, used by different operators. Four locomotives were eventually sold to leasing company northrail.[2]

A second batch of 13 locomotives was built for Dutch train maintenance company NedTrain. These locomotives are slightly longer due to the fitting of extra coupling equipment, and are used to shunt trains around their workshops.[1]

gollark: It might work, depending on the complexity of the page and the data they want.
gollark: That would also be kind of bad compared to the libraries many languages have which parse it then let you actually work with the DOM tree.
gollark: For parsing HTML, yes?
gollark: `grep` would be worse, though.
