SNCB's Class 13 is a derivative of SNCF's class 36000 electric locomotive. They work both freight and passenger trains and can work through into Luxembourg and France. They also are functional at the line from Liège to Maastricht in the Netherlands. From the Belgium - Dutch border onto Maastricht, they run a few kilometers at reduced power on the 1500 V network. These machines are also being used as the so called high speed train lines, achieving a top speed of 200 km/h. They often push or pull I11s.
CFL's 3000 class are identical mechanically, and were ordered at the same time.
