CFL Class 2000 is a class of electric multiple units operated by CFL on the Luxembourgish railway network from 1990 to 2025. They were built in 1990–1992 by a consortium of De Dietrich, ANF and Alstom and are similar to SNCF's Z 11500 class.[1]
History
The Z2 family of multiple units was designed by Francorail and Ateliers de construction du Nord de la France. CFL selected a variant of the Z 11500 class for their network.
Starting in 2024, the 2000 series was progressively replaced by the Class 2400 and 2450, a series of 34 Coradia Stream railcars from the Coradia family produced by Alstom, which is due to increase the CFL's total seat capacity by 46%.[2] All units are due to be transferred to Romania's Ferotrans TFI (a new comer on the Romanian market) by the end of 2025,[3][4][5] with ten having left Luxembourg by 22 June 2025.[6] The last units, 2009 and 2022, were retired on 29 November 2025.[7] From the end of March 2026, Private Romanian operator Ferotrafic TFI will start operating the units from Suceava to Bucharest .[8][9]
Names
Four 2000s were named after places in Luxembourg. They carried the appropriate crests on the side of the driving cab.[citation needed]
- 2001: Mersch
- 2003: Betzdorf
- 2004: Pétange
- 2018: Troisvierges
Construction
The individual cars were built with steel frames.
Technical
The multiple working system allowed three units to be worked as a single train with one driver. The individual vehicles were numbered (in UIC format) as 94 82 00 20xx 1-y and 94 82 00 20xx 2-y, where 20xx is the unit number and y the check digit.
Operations
Within Luxembourg 2000s were used, alongside 2200 series EMUs, for RB (Regionalbunn) services on Line 1. They were otherwise use on secondary lines: 1b from Kautenbach to Wiltz, 6a from Bettembourg to Volmerange-les-Mines via Dudelange, 6b from Noertzange to Rumelange, and 6c from Esch-sur-Alzette to Audun-le-Tiche.
