SBB-CFF-FFS Re 460

Add article description

The Re 460 (popularly known as the Lok 2000) series are modern four-axle electric locomotives of the Swiss Federal Railways. Upon their entry into service in the early 1990s, they replaced the Ae 3/6^I [de], Ae 4/7, and Re 4/4^I [de] series units, and displaced many of the Re 4/4^II series into lesser duties.

Quick Facts Type and origin, Power type ...

The series was introduced as part of the Rail 2000 project, a massive project to modernise and improve the capacity of Switzerland's railways.^[4] While originally designed as a multipurpose locomotive, they are now used for passenger services only, often in conjunction with the IC 2000 double-decker trains (often used to pull InterCity and InterRegio trains in German and French language areas). Their freight role has been assumed by Re 482s. They are maintained at Yverdon.

Naming

Almost all Re 460 locomotives are named, with the names being applied below the cab window at one end.

The allowed top speed is 200 km/h. In order to get the approval to run at that speed, the locomotive must be able to go 15% faster; thus, the technical top speed is 230 km/h (143 mph), see Article by Bruno Lämmli Archived 2011-07-06 at the Wayback Machine (German). However, this is not relevant in normal operation. Therefore, the table holds the allowed top speed, as for any other rail vehicle.
