Bem550_z1.jpg (47709 bytes)

Interior of a RER (Bem 550) set, used on Genève-La Plaine (-Bellegarde, France) stopping services.

Whereas these sets have a strong commonality with TSOL sets (Lausanne Metro, Line 1), RER accommodation is more comfortable, no matter how specified for suburban journeys.

Genève-Cornavin.

2nd November 2004.

Geneva has one suburban line to the east of the city. It runs on the SNCF tracks direction Lyon to la Pleine. This equipment dates from 1996 and was built by Vevey. It is similar to light rail equipment, unlike the suburban services operated by the SBB/CFF.
