Interregio” of the Swiss Federal Railways.

Locomotive-hauled and non push-pull express trains are slowly but
surely disappearing from the Swiss rail network. Through the
continuous decommissioning of the EW I and II coaches over the
years, shuttle services with the Re 4/4 fleet have also become
rare. Until the timetable change in 2020/2021, the Bözberg
Interregio was still considered a classic express train, in which
colourful rolling stock was also used. The last scheduled services
for non push-pull express trains are now limited to Intercity,
Eurocity and night trains from Zurich and Basel to Singen, Buchs SG
and Chur. Whilst the majority of the Re 460 fleet are now used to
push-pull trains, the last two trains mentioned are usually hauled
by Re 4/4s.
Two colourful wagon sets present the Bözberg Interregio from recent
years. In addition to two green EW II coaches, the two sets also
include EW IV coaches. For the first time, we present these coach
types with additional pictograms. We are also launching for the
first time EW IV coaches in an experimental livery with a narrow
black window band, as they can still be found today.
