SBB Cargo International received the first ETCS Baseline 3 Vectron in 2023 from the leasing company Railpool. Both Vectron from Railpool and ETCS Baseline 3 locomotives are a novelty in Switzerland. A long-term rental agreement was concluded for eight locomotives, which is why five of the locomotives receive the Alppiercer design typical of SBB Cargo International.
Now the Railpool 193 110 “Goldpiercer” has also been decorated for SBB Cargo International based on the previous Nightpiercer series. The “Goldpiercer” is the seventh special locomotive to be built on a Vectron. Like their predecessors (MRCE Vectron – aka “Shadwopiercer”), the DACHINL locomotives will be given Swiss lake names. The choice to decorate the 193 110 “Zugersee” in a special design is not a coincidence, as it is the 300th new locomotive from Railpool and therefore also has subtle gold stripes.
