Europe's Modern Freight Service ? Modern multi-system electric locomotives now enable cross border rail service in many European countries. The Swiss Federal Railways maintain just such a roster of motive power that is used universally far beyond the borders of the Swiss Confederation. For that reason you can often see train compositions on German rail routes made up of cars and locomotives from all kinds of European countries.
Almost all of the current Era V model railroad cars from prototypes of Central European railroads can be used with this train set.
