Re 421 # 387 (Re 4/4 II # 11387) of the International Rolling Stock Investment Gmbh (IRSI), running for TR TransRail, is pulling the test train 69474 from Winterthur freight yard via Kloten-Regensdorf-Killwangen-Zürich Altstetten-Thalwil-Ziegelbrücke-Sargans-Buchs-St.Margrethen to Rorschach freight yard, then via Romanshorn VL-Frauenfeld back to Winterthur freight yard, with 2 brand new Zags gas tank cars for the spanish TRAMESA (Transportes Mixtos Especiales), between Winterthur Tössmühle and Kemptthal. The long drive "around the Säntis mountain" served to grind in the brake blocks, in preparation for the later brake measurement runs.
