The first units of the Stadler-built RTZ multiple-unit trains have been in scheduled service since summer 2020. The largest procurement of rolling stock in the history of the RhB, with 56 four-car ABe 4/16 3111-3166 "Capricorn" (Rhaeto-Romanic for ibex) winged multiple units, will revolutionize operations on the Graubünden metre-gauge railroad to an unprecedented extent and enable half-hourly services on the main network. On the first Rhine Valley-Engadine line, the "Capricorn" trains starting in Landquart will run together as far as Klosters, where they will be separated for the onward journey to Davos Platz or via Vereina to St. Moritz, or combined in the opposite direction. Further services in the direction of Surselva via Chur to Disentis and between Davos and Filisur will follow as delivery of the trains progresses. This wing train concept saves train paths thanks to automatic couplings, offers optimal connections and increases travel comfort with rolling stock suitable for the disabled. The 120 km/h meter gauge trains consist of a motor coach and two middle coaches with a total of 129 seats in 2nd class and multifunctional compartments. The driving trailer offers 35 seats in 1st class.
As part of the first edition of the red train 3111 and the champagne-colored 3133, we have commissioned a relatively small edition of a second (red) train: the ABe 4/16 3117 reproduces a train without a baptismal name. This train can be used to reproduce a double traction of two red trains. For double traction we recommend coupling two motor cars with the help of the enclosed upstream coupler and the use of radii greater than 376 mm. It is not possible to run two coupled trains on 330 mm radii with opposing curves without a longer intermediate straight line; we would have had to cut out the front apron so that it was clearly visible.
