Historical Background
The Rhaetian Railway operates an extensive metre-gauge network throughout the Swiss canton of Graubünden, connecting towns, villages and popular Alpine destinations. Its trains are renowned for travelling through spectacular mountain scenery and negotiating challenging railway routes.
The Einheitswagen I (EW I) coaches were designed for regular passenger services and became a familiar feature of the RhB fleet. Second-class coaches such as B 2371 provided everyday seating for regional and longer-distance journeys, operating in locomotive-hauled formations alongside first-class coaches and other passenger vehicles. The traditional green livery represents an earlier appearance of RhB rolling stock and suits classic Swiss narrow-gauge model railway layouts.
