Details

The Re 460 electric locomotive was first delivered to the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) in 1992, built by SLM and BBC in Oerlikon. Widely recognised by the public as the "Lok 2000," it quickly became a symbol of fast, modern, and efficient passenger transport in Switzerland.

Its sleek, aerodynamic design features a large front window, distinctive roof panelling, and characteristic side-wall beading, making the Re 460 one of the most visually striking locomotives in Europe. Beyond its appearance, it remains a highly capable and reliable machine, serving prominently on passenger services across the Swiss network.
