Able Siemens

            A low winter sun finds ÖBB's 1293 193 pulling strongly through Bernolákovo with a uniform rake of CMA CGA shipping containers.

This particular Vectron is one of well over 100 such locomotives supplied to Rail Cargo Group (Rail Cargo Austria - RCA), part of the ÖBB-Holding AG group by Siemens Mobility and built at their factory in Munich-Allach.

An able seaman (AB*) is a seaman and member of the deck department of a merchant ship with more than two years' experience at sea and considered "well acquainted with his duty". An AB may work as a watchstander, a day worker, or a combination of these roles (thanks once again Wiki). 

According to current maritime data, french-based CMA CGA are the world's third largest operator in the global container shipping business with a market share of just under 13 percent. In view of that figure it is almost impossible to speculate how many AB's have been involved at some time in the transportation of the containers making up this lengthy consist.

*wouldn't that be an AS?
