Roco 71410 Electric locomotive double traction Re 10/10

The double traction of the Re 4/4ˡˡˡ and the Re 6/6 is called Re 10/10 for simplicity. This designation is derived from the ten powered axles that the double train has and therefore does not refer to a particular locomotive type. The Re 10/10 are used by the SBB almost exclusively in front of heavy goods trains on the Saint Gotthard route. The potent duo manages to pull the allowed maximum load of 1.400 tons with the towing hook at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour on a gradient of 26 per mile.

The locomotives of the class Re 4/4ˡˡ are considered universal machines of the SBB, which were purchased from 1967 for the transportation of heavy passenger trains and goods trains. Some machines were painted in TEE colors and hauled the unique international TEE express trains.
