Unit 41-0008-7 with the old number plates

In 2004, this locomotive is spotted with the red and white livery,
symmetric pantographs and number plates 060-EA-008 'https://www.trainsdepot.org/image/gallery/vehicle/13252/' target=

seen 'https://www.trainsdepot.org/image/gallery/vehicle/13253/' target=

By the end of 2007, this locomotive is upgraded to Class 41,
receives asymmetric pantographs and is registered as 41-0008-7 as
it can be seen 'https://www.trainsdepot.org/image/gallery/vehicle/13251/unit-41-0008-7-freshly-upgraded-from-060-ea-008-unit'
target="_blank">here. Soon after, the new number plates will be
replaced with the old ones as seen 'https://www.trainsdepot.org/image/gallery/vehicle/13256/unit-41-0008-7-with-the-old-number-plates'
target="_blank">here, and the locomotive will continue to run
with the "wrong" number plates for a couple of years as seen
'https://www.trainsdepot.org/image/gallery/vehicle/13255/unit-41-0008-7-with-the-old-number-plates'
target="_blank">here and 'https://www.trainsdepot.org/image/gallery/vehicle/13254/unit-41-0008-7-with-the-old-number-plates'
target="_blank">here. This is a common thing in Romania where
in many cases the number plates are replaced or exchanged.



Finally, in 2016 the unit is spotted 'https://www.trainsdepot.org/image/gallery/vehicle/13257/' target=

410008-3 written on the front of the locomotive and the old number
plates removed.
