The 3D model was created originally with Sketchup 7 before being converted into other 3D formats. Native format is .skp, while the 3ds Max scene was rendered in version 2016 using Vray 3.00. Bombardier unveiled an upgraded TRAXX locomotive platform in May 2004 as demonstrator loco 185 561. The new model retained core features from the F140AC machines with slight enhancements, including improved crash resistance through cabin design changes and efficiency gains achieved by upgrading inverters to IGBT technology, both modifications built upon previous synthetic ester cooling methods utilizing GTOs. Locomotives designed for use in France's standard gauge made them usable across France-Germany borders. A further 200 of the initially ordered 400 freight locomotives destined for DB Cargo were planned to be of this enhanced model type, designated DBAG Class 185.2. Production halted on F140ACs as it shifted towards the newer model to fulfill main-body production demands at Bombardier's Kassel plant; further AC orders incorporated into F140AC2 production, making original models largely obsolete upon delivery. Locomotive 185 561 led the series production ahead of Germany-wide homologation; another machine, 185 568, tested new lines in 2006 then played key role for ETCS tests. Eventually, both demonstrator trains found homes with private operators for standard commercial use following testing and evaluation.
