Remarks & Notes |
The Rhaetian Railway has in mind to set a world record for the longest passenger train in the world on October 29, 2022 in connection with 175 years of Swiss Railways. 25 coupled "Capricorn" trains with a total length of 1910 meters are to run from Preda via Bergün and Filisur to Alvaneu. Extensive testing has already been undertaken for this purpose. Now a publicity locomotive has also been designed, the Ge 4/4 III # 644 "Savognin" makes the world record attempt known throughout the canton. The locomotive pulls the Interrregio train 1125 from Chur over the Albula line to St.Moritz, between Spinas and Bever. Behind the locomototive two second class standard cars type II, followed by the permanently coupled 6-car ALVRA trainset and the cab car At in the rear. |
