The Re 6/6 locomotives (Re620) used by SBB Cargo in domestic traffic have reached an average age of almost 40 years. The robust locomotives have good substance and represent the backbone of the SBB Cargo fleet. Since the RE 620, with its high performance and six drive axles, remains indispensable on the difficult routes in Switzerland and cannot be replaced by any other locomotive of equal value, the locomotives will continue to be used overhauled and modernized to keep them up to date for years to come. In addition to visual features such as the air conditioning systems for the cabins that were added a few years ago, the vehicles will now be equipped with ETCS. ProLok will cost around CHF 1.58 million for the entire modernization.
