Description

Due to its increasing age, the Re 421 fleet of SBB Cargo was one of the first locomotives of the entire Re 4/4 family to be sold. The Re 421 series originated from the most recently delivered Re 4/4 II of the 11371 - 11397 series, which were built between 1983 and 1985 and rebuilt for use in Germany between 2002 and 2004. The 26 locomotives (excluding 11382, which was taken out of service in 2002 due to a fire) were intended to supplement the Re 482 fleet delivered from 2002 for cross-border traffic between Germany and Switzerland and were also intended for domestic German traffic for SBB Cargo Germany. The locomotives were later largely leased to foreign railroad companies. While the leasing of locomotives to private companies declined with the increasing number of new locomotives and leasing companies on the market, the Re 421s were increasingly transferred to Switzerland. As the locomotives were never retrofitted with air conditioning and ETCS equipment, which was becoming increasingly important in Switzerland, the locomotives were up for sale early on. In January 2018, Widmer Rail Services (WRS) was the first company to secure the two Re 421 373 + 381 locomotives, which today provide valuable services for the Swiss company.
