Details
The iconic Ge 6/6 electric locomotive, introduced by the Rhaetian Railway (RhB) in 1921, was designed to tackle the steep gradients and tight curves of the Swiss Alps. Often referred to as the “Rhaetian Crocodile” due to its articulated body and long nose sections, this powerful locomotive delivered 880 kW and reached speeds up to 55 km/h. It played a vital role in hauling heavy freight and passenger trains across mountainous terrain for decades. A must-have for model railway enthusiasts, the Ge 6/6 combines historic Swiss engineering and unique design—perfect for adding Alpine authenticity to any layout.
