The BB 60000 are diesel locomotives put into service by the SNCF company for the Freight activity. These models were intended to replace the BB 63400 / 63500 series. The railway company had a choice of 3 models: the Vossloh G 1000, the Firema D 146 Trenitalia and a derivative of the SBB Am 841 proposed by Alstom-Spain.
