The EP07 class is a recent modification of the EU07 that has new traction motors and altered gear ratios to make them better suited for hauling passenger trains rather than as mixed traffic locomotives for which they were designed in the mid-1960s. If EP07-1014 looks familiar as it prepares to join a train at Kraków station that is because it is based on our own Class 83 locomotives hence their nickname in Poland of 'Anglik' (The Englishman).
