The modern T2000 rail wagons from railCare, equipped with two
permanently installed 45-foot refrigerated containers, replace the
sliding-wall wagons previously in temporary use by SBB Cargo. They
are specially designed for loading and unloading operations on
railway ramps and offer a high level of practicality thanks to
their sophisticated design. A three-part loading platform
compensates for the height difference to the ramp, which enables
maximum flexibility when loading and unloading with industrial
trucks. With their noticeable Coop lettering, the wagons have
become a familiar sight in Swiss freight traffic and can be seen
travelling throughout the country almost every day. They can be
used in a wide variety of train compositions and lengths thanks to
their versatility. Only three wagons are needed to form a
prototypical train in the model, which can be used behind SBB Cargo
and BLS Cargo locomotives as well as behind the railCare Vectron
"Coop". The longest pure T2000 trains are the so-called ‘water
trains’ between Wangen bei Olten and Brig. Depending on demand, 12
to 13 carriages are in regular use.
