MAV 470  
in short
MAV 1047 series
Together with GySEV, the MAV ordered ten high performance locomotives of the type ES64U2 by Siemens in September 2001. Because the MAV 1047 series is identical to the OBB 1116 series, it was possible, that 8 months after order placement, the 1047 001 already could be presented. Between March and November 2002 the complete batch was delivered. They are used for all sorts of trains in Hungary and Austria, but are also approved for Germany. This is possible because they have the EVM120 (Hungary) and Indusi (Germany and Austria) train signalling and safety systems and they have a traction system for 15kV AC and 25kV AC. The locomotives are mainly used for the IC- and EC-services between Vienna and Budapest.

MAV 470: General history  
The brand new 1047 001 has left the factories in Munchen and ready for its first run.

Remarkable service numbers
In March 2002, the Siemens factories in Munchen-Allach completed the 1047 001. The remaining nine machines followed within months. Curious detail is that the designation the MAV selected for its new machines is in fact based on the Austrian numbering system. 1047 would be the most logical and correct service number for multi purpose electrics according to their system. As the OBB decided to use 1116, GySEV and MAV choose 1047.

OBB awarded with 1047 service contract
In 2006, the MAV awarded the OBB workshops if Linz with a 10 year service contract for its 10 multi-purpose machines. This means 1047 001-010 will get their regular check-ups and main overhauls in Austria.

MAV 470: Customer specific package  
All MAV 1047 series machines are equipped with Hungarian EVM 120 safety and signalling system, for services in Austria and Germany the Indusi system is on board. Unlike GySEV, the MAV decided not to equip its 1047 series machines with the German LZB (Linienzugbeeinflussung) system, an identification and safety system for locomotives, predominanty used when running at speeds over 160 kph. For the MAV 1047 series this means that their top speed when running in Austria or Germany is limited to 160 kph.
MAV 470: Livery details  
One could clearly see which MAV locomotive had recently had its roof tops replaced in Munchen.

basic livery
All ten MAV 1047 electrics are painted blue with yellow front ends. Colours used for rolling stock for intercity services. MAV logos complete the looks.

detail changes
1047 001, 002, 003, and 008 were delivered with both Siemens and KraussMaffei markings, perforated in their frame ends up front and on every side. The other machines only carry the name Siemens. This changed because the manufacturer of these machines changed its name in September 2001 from Siemens-KraussMaffei to Siemens after the latter one had increased its share in the total company from 25 to 75%. This of course has to be visible on the products right away!

new roof tops
As done by all other ES64U2 type machines, Siemens had to replace the GFK roof tops of 1047 001-010 in 2006. As the yellow colour of the MAV machines was pretty bleached out by that time, it was easy to see which machine already went to Munchen for their new rooftops.
