The prototype: ABe 4/4 34 of the Rhaetian Railway

The ABe 4/4 30 to 38 series railcars were originally developed for the Rhaetian Railway's Bernina line. These vehicles were created by converting older railcars from 1908 to 1911 and were put into service between 1946 and 1953. With an output of 396 kW and a maximum speed of 55 km/h, they were designed for use on the 1,000 V direct current Bernina line. In 2000, railcar 34 was restored to its original yellow condition and has since been used as a nostalgic vehicle for special trips and tourist purposes.
