The BB 25100 is a class of electric locomotives in service with the French railways SNCF, built by Materiel de Traction Electrique (MTE) in 1967. They are dual voltage locomotives working off both 1500 V DC and 25 kV 50 Hz AC with a top speed of 130 km/h (81 mph). The class was designed by André Jacquemin.

Originally allocated to Chalindrey, they were used on the Dijon to Metz route until supplanted by Dijon-based BB 22200. Subsequently, they operated express passenger and freight services around Dijon and also in the northeast of France. The class was eventually withdrawn by 2006.
