Abstract
A rail vehicle, in particular a locomotive, includes a railcar body having a head end provided with a front nose. The railcar body has an interface, in the region of the head end, which is configured and provided for fastening and connecting differently shaped front noses forming a set of variations. A front nose selected from the set of variations is thereby fastened to the interface by a welded connection. The rail vehicle therefore permits more flexibility in the shaping of the head end of the railcar body.
