SBB CFF FFS Bpm 61 85 20-90 299-9 at InnoTrans 2008. This is the prototype for rebuilt EuroCity cars. The interior fabrics are changed to match the EW IV rebuilding programme. Electric plugs for every double seat are new; the wheelchair toilet is rebuilt to a bioreactor and the other toilet removed to make space for bicycle transport. Technically the cars are enabled for push-pull trains; in the future it is planned to use them in Swiss inland trains as well as internationally. tobias b köhler
