Crossrail was created as a brand name of Swiss railway company
Regionalverkehr Mittelland AG (RM) for the operation of
unaccompanied combined transport on the transalpine axis Italy –
Switzerland – Germany via Simplon – Lötschberg. When the company
became independent, it received from Regionalverkehr Mittelland
(RM) its five locomotives used for freight traffic, which
corresponded to the SBB type class 4/4 III and were procured from

locomotives had a licence for Switzerland and were retrofitted with
ETCS over the years, which is necessary for running freight trains
through the Lötschberg Base Tunnel and Gotthard Base Tunnel.
