Red Arrow (Swiss Train)
The Red Arrow (German: ''Roter Pfeil'', French: ''Flèche rouge'', Italian: ''Freccia rossa'') is a class of 12 disparate but similar railcars built in the 1930s by the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). As built there was a mixture of single and double units, and of diesel and electrically propelled units. They were originally intended for traffic on lines with a low volume of traffic, following the global economic crisis of 1928. In their original role, the Red Arrows were the victim of their own success, being unable to cope with the increased loadings they brought. Replaced by locomotive hauled trains on their original routes, the SBB capitalised on their popularity by using them on charter and other special services. Later Red Arrows were built specifically for this service. The most notable Red Arrow is the ''Churchill Pfeil'', a double unit once used by Winston Churchill and still operated on charter services by SBB Historic. Three of the single unit railcars also still exist ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
