CFL Class 2000

CFL Class 2000 is a class of electric multiple units operated by CFL on the Luxembourg railway network. They were built in 1990-1992 by a consortium of De Dietrich, ANF and Alstom and are similar to SNCF's Z 11500 class.^[1]

The Z2 family of multiple units was designed by Francorail and Ateliers de construction du Nord de la France. CFL selected a variant of the Z 11500 class for their network.

Between 2024 and 2025, the 2000 series will be replaced by 34 Coradia Stream railcars from the Coradia family produced by Alstom, which is due to increase the CFL's total seat capacity by 46%.^[2]

Four 2000s have been named after places in Luxembourg. They carry the appropriate crests on the side of the driving cab.

• 2001: Mersch
• 2003: Betzdorf
• 2004: Pétange
• 2018: Troisvierges

The individual cars are built with steel frames.

The multiple working system allows three units to be worked as a single train with one driver. The individual vehicles are numbered (in UIC format) as 94 82 00 20xx 1-y and 94 82 00 20xx 2-y, where 20xx is the unit number and y the check digit.

Within Luxembourg 2000s are used, alongside 2200 series EMUs, for RB (Regionalbunn) services on Line 1. They are otherwise use on secondary lines: 1b from Kautenbach to Wiltz, 6a from Bettembourg to Volmerange-les-Mines via Dudelange, 6b from Noertzange to Rumelange, and 6c from Esch-sur-Alzette to Audun-le-Tiche.
