Product Features and Details
Prototype: The RhB (Rhätische Bahn) ordered two production series with a total of 26 panorama coaches for the world famous Bernina Express. In comparison to previously built coaches for other destinations, the Bernina coaches are 3.2 m longer. Nine first class and 17 second class coaches have been built, which turned out very popular with the passengers. The Pullman model is - subject to prototype – equipped either with SIG-90 bogies with a replica of the coil springs or with the Stadler SSL bogies with imitation air cushioning. All wheel current pick-up provides reliable power for the integral digital decoder. In addition, there is a PowerPack storage capacitor on board. Thus the interior coach lighting – supplied as a standard feature – will always operate flicker-free, even on dirty track. The era VI versions are equipped with prototypical destination signs on the sides.
