| Remarks & Notes |
| The Rhaetian Railway's Ge 4/4 II # 626 “Malans” locomotive was given a new livery in cobalt blue and ivory to match the “Alpine Classic Pullman Express” (ACPE) parlor cars, at the suggestion of the Friends of the Saloon Cars of the RhB Association. The ceremonial rollout took place in Landquart on September 17. The design of the locomotive was made by graphique artist Michaela Hardmeier in cooperation with the RhB. Name and coat of arms of Malans is now small on the grey frame visible. The locomotive will be given the name of Alby Glatt in 2025, "Mister Pullman" and founder of the saloon cars of the RhB association. Ge 4/4 II # 626 pulls the about one hour late PE 904 GLACIER EXPRESS (Zermatt-Brig-Andermatt-Disentis-Chur-) from Chur to St.Moritz, between Reichenau-Tamins and Bonaduz. |
