The family E656 is friendly named 'caimano' (cayman) and this nice "logo" was originally applied over any engine
This universal electrical engine has been built in more than 450 units between 1975 and 1989 and is still running on Italian rails
Here follow some pictures taken between 1988 and 2007 concerning the different series, differently painted and with a wide variety of trains: enjoy them!
