This evening at Frankfurt Central:

MRCE Dispolok engine ES 64 U2-001/182 501 getting under way with IC 2297 to Stuttgart Central. There currently are six MRCE ES 64 U2s under lease by the DB in order to augment their long distance motive power fleet, in light of the ongoing issue with the ICE-T and ICE 3 types being subject to significantly shortened maintenance cycles. The engines in question are ES 64 U2-001, 026, 030, 036, 061 and 072.

Yes, I do think this here certainly was not the perfect photo spot. However, I had little choice - in fact, I first rode down the line to Darmstadt to check out a couple of locations, which but were not really suitable either, owing to OHLE masts and stuff being in the way. Oh well!
