Maerklin has announced several models of the Vossloh G-2000 BB Diesel, including the Railion, SBB Cargo, RailFeeding (NL) and SNCB versions.
The Railion version belongs to Railion Italy, formerly known as Strade Ferrate del Mediterraneo and currently DB Schenker Rail Italia and is exclusively used on non-electrified routes in Italy, primarily in the northern region near Chiasso (CH)/Como. The same can be said for the SBB Am 840, which operates exclusively for SBB Cargo Italia on non electrified routes in northern Italy.

These locomotives can usually be found pulling container (KLV) or other trains into Italy that were brought to Chiasso from western or northern Europe by BR 185, BR 189 or ES 64 U (Taurus) class locomotives.

There are some good photos of SBB Am 840 consists on www.trainspo.com like this one: http://trainspo.com/photo/27097/
Here is one of the Railion (DB Schenker) locomotives: http://www.bahnpics.com/...20Carimate/DSC_6385k.jpg

Here is the Railion version in it's later livery when it was taken over by FNM (NordCargo), which was later taken over by Railion DB rebranded as DB Schenker Rail Italia:

A good consist for the Railion locomotive would be the 47039 Set of FS/DB Freight cars combined with added Railion and similar cars (47002/47200/47202).
A good consist for the SBB Cargo locomotive would be the freight cars from the 29486 Set and similar cars.
