The Prototype
In 1913, Switzerland's Rhatische Bahn (RhB) purchased seven light electric locomotives for the Engadin line from St. Moritz to Scuol. These "Ge 2/4" locos were numbered 201 to 207. In 1943, Loco 206 was rebuilt as a switching loco and renumbered 212. It received a new body with center cab to provide all-around visibility for the engineer. Unlike other Ge 2/4s, which were rebuilt with new motors and gears, No. 212 retained its original drivetrain. In 1998, the loco still performed switching duties at the lIanz station, 85 years after it was built! The LGB model replicates this loco with paint and lettering from the late 1940s.
