NMBS/SNCB Class 41 DMUs are diesel multiple-unit trains operated by the National Railway Company of Belgium (NMBS/SNCB). They are the standard train for Belgian internal workings which cannot be worked by EMUs. They work under the 25 kV electrification in the South of Belgium as well as on the non-electrified lines in the North.
The reason was to put more seats on the busy line from Ottignies to Brussels during the peak commuting hours. This worked because a pair of Class 26s had almost the same power (7000 HP) as a single Class 13 or Class 20. Locomotive 2629 has been preserved by the PFT-TSP railway preservation group. [1] [2]
