About SBB Re 10/10 freight train by Thomas / Ts__
SBB Re 10/10 freight train
Background:
The Swiss locomotives are equipped with multiple control, so that one driver can control up to 4 locomotives in the network. On the Gotthard railroad, an Re 4/4 II was often coupled with an Re 6/6 for heavy freight trains. This "locomotive" was then called Re 10/10 (10 of 10 axles powered).
Model:
The Re 4/4 II "11239" and the Re 6/6 "11622" were built between January and March 2021.
The freight cars in the train were built as of December 2020 and some are added every now and then.
