RALPIN 61 85 59-00 116-8. Only a few years ago these Eurofima couchette cars received an expensive overhaul with newly developed SF200 bogies for 200 km/h, then the SBB CFF FFS decided to stop operating own night trains and sold the cars, now they are used in RoLa trains, reduced to 120 km/h without magnetic track brakes or yaw dampers. I wish CNL or ÖBB had bought them instead to replace their aging couchette cars in regular overnight trains .... Frutigen, 2012-06-07. |

A low-floor truck transport wagon of the Swiss HUPAC company. It has
16 very small wheels, so the floor is low enough that trucks do not
exceed the loading gauge. These cars operate in fixed consists with
special couplers between the cars and normal couplers with buffers on
the ends. The trains operate every night between Freiburg (Breisgau)
and Milano, the truck drivers sleep in a rebuilt passenger car coupled
to the train. April 1996, Freiburg (Breisgau) freight station.

Now if I was going to picture a lorry on a Swiss train going through Olten
then lets make it a British one an ERF...although I had no idea at the time!
This sight is not one we can see in the U.K. which was taken in early July 2004.
