Remarks & Notes |
"Rhaetian Crocodile" or "C-C" Ge 6/6 I # 415 (built in 1929) had to be completely rewired after a cable fire. It was also rust repaired and repainted in the original brown. A special paint was sprayed over it, which will be removed after about a year (solvent-based liquid rubber in pearl / metallic effect). When moving around, chameleon paint will change colour. The light reflection on chameleon spray paint gives the multi-coloured changing special effect. This special appearance was apparently initiated and paid for by two well-known model train manufacturers.The action was apparently initiated and paid for by two well-known model train manufacturers. The locomotive is now operational again and made a test run from Landquart to Davos Platz and back today with 150 ton load. The train is ready for departure in Davos Platz back to Landquart. On the right is electro/battery shunter Geaf 2/2 # 20602.
