Pesa is building more Gama locomotives. The first images appear of 111Eb-003 and 004 around the factory in Bydgoszcz. Like the Gama locomotive for Koleje Mazowickie, they are numbered in the 111Eb range, meaning they are 160 km/u fast 'multi purpose' locomotives. They do not feature the help diesel module, referred to by Pesa as Marathon module.

Pesa has to build ten new Gama electric locomotives. Two were ordered by PHU Lokomotiv for Ecco Rail. Eight more will be part of the Rail Capital Partners (RCP) leasing fleet, that is commonly owned by Pesa and the state-owned Polish Development Fund (PFR).

During the weekend, the news emerged that Pesa was establishing a locomotive leasing unit. On 16.05.2016, this new was made official.

Pesa, the Polish rolling stock manufacturer has founded 'Rail Capital Partners' (RCP), together with the state-owned Polish Development Fund (PFR). Pesa takes a 51% stake in RCP, where PFR owns the remaining 49% of the shares.

In the next five years, the two partners will commonly bring around 200 million Zloty into RCP. Included in the investment is the construction of eight Gama Marathon locomotives by Pesa. In first instance, RCP wants to offer its fleet to open access operators active in Polish domestic market. This means we are talking here about Gama locomotives for 3kV DC catenary systems only, but with an additional combustion engine for shunting. Multi-system locomotives are still considered being too expensive, especially when looking at additional costs of getting such machines equipped and homologated for countries outside Poland.

The first new Gama Marathon locomotive for RCP is already under construction. All eight machines should become available to the market within in the next 2 years. RCP is most likely to start its leasing services in the first quarter of 2017, making its machines available to both freight and passenger operators.
