The '''SNCF Class BB 27300''' is an [[electric locomotive]]. There are 67 BB 27300 locomotives, built as part of the [[Prima (locomotive)|Prima]] range by [[Alstom]].<ref name=railcolor>{{cite web |title=SNCF Transilien BB 27300 |url=http://www.railcolor.net/index.php?nav=1405025&lang=1 |work=RailColor.net |access-date=25 September 2009}}</ref> The first BB 27300 were delivered starting in 2006. Painted in the blue and white livery of [[Transilien]], the brand name for the SNCF network around Paris, these locomotives are the passenger equivalent of the freight-only [[SNCF Class BB 27000]] and are equipped for [[push-pull train|push-pull]] operation on suburban passenger services in the [[Île-de-France|Île-de-France region]] around [[Paris]], working with refurbished [[Voiture de banlieue à 2 niveaux|VB2N]] double-deck carriages.<ref name=failfan>{{cite web |title=SNCF Île de France (Transilien) locomotives |url=http://www.railfaneurope.net/list/france/france_sncf_idf.html |work=railfaneurope.net |access-date=26 September 2009}}</ref>

==Technical information==
The power of the locomotive is {{convert|4200|kW|hp|abbr=on}}.

The locomotive is equipped with a train protection system derived from the [[contrôle de vitesse par balises]] system : the KVBP.

It is also equipped with two pantographs, one dedicated to the 1500 V direct current, the other to the 25000 V alternating current.

== History ==
The BB 27300 were authorized on the national network of [[France]] in 2006 by the [[Établissement public de sécurité ferroviaire]].<ref>{{Interlanguage link multi|Rail Passion|fr}} #119, p16 and p17</ref>

==Orders==
The first batch of 60 locomotives was ordered in 2004, and following testing of the first two units in 2005, delivered progressively into 2008. Follow-up orders for five and two locomotives respectively were placed.<ref name=railcolor/> The locomotives are numbered in series from 27301-27367, although the number carried on the locomotive is prefixed with the number 8, to denote the unit as belonging to the Île-de-France division of SNCF.<ref name=railcolor/>

==Usage==
The first locomotives entered service in 2006 on suburban trains from [[Paris Montparnasse railway station]]. Current deployment sees a total of 25 locomotives operating services from Paris-Montparnasse on trains to [[Dreux]], [[Mantes-la-Jolie]] and [[Rambouillet]]. At Montparnasse they have displaced older [[SNCF Class BB 8500]] and [[SNCF Class BB 25500|BB 25500]] locomotives. A further 42 locomotives operate from [[Gare Saint-Lazare|Paris Saint-Lazare]] railway station on trains to [[Poissy]], Mantes-la-Jolie, [[Pontoise]], [[Gisors]], and [[Ermont Eaubonne]]. At Saint-Lazare BB 8500 and [[SNCF Class BB 17000|BB 17000]] locomotives have been displaced.

==Future==
The usage of BB 27300 locomotives on suburban passenger services is a temporary measure. It is expected that sometime after 2015 they will begin to be replaced by new [[Electric Multiple Units]]. When this happens, the locomotives are likely to find further use with SNCF's freight subsidiary, [[SNCF Fret]], where they will join the technically similar [[SNCF Class BB 27000|BB 27000]] locomotives.
