Prototype information

The classic SBB 2-axle freight cars were built from the turn of the last century to the Fifties using similar designs. Improvements in load capacity, the running gear, or the brakes were introduced as the level of railroad technology progressed. Long freight trains made up of short cars left their stamp on Swiss railroad freight service over the decades - naturally, also on the Gotthard line, pulled by the famous "Crocodile".
