Comment: VW and the German Federal Railroad developed an extremely creative idea, when they concluded an agreement in 1959 for transport by rail of motors and transmissions between various VW production sites. There were still no containers at that time as we know them now, so that initially standard containers had to be developed, which were first transported on close-coupled type R10 double unit low side cars (without stakes). Starting in September of 1959, motors and transmissions were then transported by rail between the VW plants in Wolfsburg and Hannover. Starting in 1965, rebuilt type Rm(r)so 31 stake cars began replacing the old type R 10 car. Once again, there were close-coupled units consisting of two each type Klms 440 cars. Stakes, side and end walls, hand brakes, brakeman's platforms, and brakeman's cab were not used on these cars. They now had only flat superstructures with wood floors, on which the transport frames for the containers were mounted. The containers themselves varied in height (1,546, 1,765 or 2,330 mm / 60-7/8, 69-1/2, or 91-3/4 inches), but they had identical bottom dimensions (2,900 x 2,650 mm / 114-3/16 x 104-5/16 inches), since they had to fit in the receptacle frames of the transport cars. These transport containers were designed for either 36 motors or 96 transmissions per load. They had guide rails on the inner and middle walls, on which small roller assemblies were slid on with the corresponding number of motors or transmissions. The containers had hatches and doors with central locking on the side walls for loading and unloading.In 1966, the container transport cars for motors and transmissions ran on the routings Hannover – Wolfsburg, Hannover – Emden, and Hannover – Ingolstadt as well as from Kassel-Baunatal to Emden, Wolfsburg, and Ingolstadt, later also to Brussels. With the start of production of motors and transmissions at the VW plant in Salzgitter starting in 1970 as well as the merging of Audi NSU Auto Union, Inc. into the VW structure there were the additional destinations of Salzgitter, Neckarsulm, Stuttgart, and Osnabrck (Karman). The handling of these cars during switching should be mentioned as a special feature: They were not to be run on hump tracks and had to detour around the hump yard tracks and they had to be pushed into the exit group. On no account could they be allowed to come together too hard. Yet, towards the end of the Sixties, sliding wall and sliding roof cars of various types slowly pushed these transport cars to the side, since here the containers could be done away with, and the frames with motors and transmissions could be loaded directly. These container transport cars were thus history in the Eighties.

Comment: In the first half of the Sixties, the Swedish State Railways (SJ – Statens J„rnv„gar) worked intensively on replacing their old side rod electric locomotives. The Swedish locomotive builder ASEA built on this goal and came up with six four-axle test locomotives in 1962 with the usual stepped relay control. Three years later a tentative conversion of road number Rb1 1001 to control with thyristor rectifiers was successful. The new technology allowed exact and variable control of the motor current without changing between various running modes. In addition, this led to a 25% to 30% higher utilization of tractive effort. Additional advantages were less risk of slippage and lower maintenance.This locomotive served as the prototype for the new class Rc, which was then bought from ASEA in six production runs of 360 units and delivered in the following 20 years. The locomotives were equipped with 900 kilowatt type motors, and they were mostly built for a maximum speed of 135 km/h / 84 mph. The ten locomotives from the Rc3 production run and the last 40 units of the class Rc6 came from the builder equipped to run at 160 km/h / 100 mph. During the long production period, various improvements flowed into this series, and there were different conversions and modifications. Changing the gearing allowed 23 units of the Rc2 and all 60 units of the Rc5 locomotives to run at 160 km/h / 100 mph (they were reclassed as the Rc3 and Rc6).With the division of the SJ into various business areas on January 1, 2001, the freight service sector Green Cargo (GC) received the Rc1, Rc2, and Rc4 units. Most of the Rc1 units are in storage and are no longer on the Green Cargo roster, while most of the Rc2 units (since converted to Rd2) and Rc4 units are still to be found pulling GC freight trains.The SJ AB (passenger train service) was given all Rc3 and Rc6 units. The former were all sold in 2014, and the latter are still used currently chiefly in passenger train service.

Comment: When the Gotthard Basis Tunnel was placed into service, the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) announced internationally in the spring of 2012 the delivery of powered rail car trains with a maximum speed of 250 km/h / 156 mph. Eventually, the Swiss firm Stadler prevailed in April of 2014 with their concept SMILE (Schneller Mehrsystemf„higer Innovativer Leichter Expresszug / Fast Multisystem Innovative Lightweight Express Train), whereby Stadler built a high-speed train for the first time. The SBB ordered 29 eleven-part units of the new class RABe 501 for international service and assigned them the designation "Giruno" (derived from Rhaeto-Romanic "girùn" for "Buzzard"). The trains can run in four countries under three current systems (15 kilovolts / 16.7 Hertz, 25 kilovolts / 50 Hertz, and 3 kilovolts DC) and are equipped with the ETCS, PZB, LZB, and SCMT train safety systems for this.The "Giruno" is a 202 meter / 656 foot 6 inch long, single-level operationally permanent multi-unit train with Jakobs trucks. Only the end cars have normal trucks under their outer ends. Four Jakobs trucks are powered with three-phase, asynchronous motors, whereby the propulsion equipment is designed to be redundant with four traction rectifiers. An eleven-part class RABe 501 consists of four cars, 1st class, with 117 seats mostly in a 2+1 arrangement, a dining car, as well as six cars, 2nd class, with 288 seats in a 2+2- arrangement. The dining car as well as the two adjoining cars are constructed to meet handicapped requirements in order to satisfy the provisions of the Swiss handicapped access law. The "Giruno" has step-less entries for station platform heights of 55 cm / 22" and 76 cm / 30". Its pressure-resistant and air conditioned passenger areas and cab as well as the multifunction compartments and bicycle compartments in the passenger area set a new standard for comfortable travel by train. All of the passengers have a free view of the screens for the digital information system. In addition, cell phone signal boosters and WLAN are available in both classes.On May 10, 2021, the SBB took delivery of the last 29 trains. Since then they have TSI permission as well as network permission for Switzerland, Germany, Italy, and Austria. Since December of 2019, they have run on regular schedules through the Gotthard Basis Tunnel and they connect Basle/Zrich with Chiasso and Lugano. Continuing runs to Italy to Milan started on August 12, 2020, since September in multiple unit operation too. In the next step, runs between Basle and Frankfurt/Main are planned. Also being considered by the SBB is the use of these new powered rail car trains in the direction of Hamburg.

The basic set of the class RABe 501 "Giruno" high-speed rail car train can be found in an AC version in the M„rklin H0 assortment under item number 39810.
