Gotthard northern ramp |
Description: |
A Re 6/6 with a Re 4/4 as second engine in the lead and as helper a Re 620 at the back of the heavy freigth train. Up to 1300 tons can be pulled by an Re 6/6 with an Re 4/4 II (this combination is sometimes referred to as Re 10/10); if the trains are heavier they have to be pushed by an additional Re 4/4 or Re 6/6, because the couplers are too weak to pull the entire train on the steep 28%o slopes. |

The first test Re 6/6 of 1972 is still in operation. The 7500 kW power pack is needed to pull a 800t train over 26 ‰ ramp of Gotthard with a speed of 80 kph / 50 mph. To reach the necessary tractive effort, a construction comprising six driven axles was necessary. The first two engines had a split body, with longitudinal movments only. The serial production got a single casing with same traction effects. |
