Jungfrau Railway BDhe 2/4

Switzerland 1955 10 produced
Norbert Aepli CC BY 3.0

Since the Jungfrau Railway was still dependent on the Rowan trains at the beginning of the 1950s, some of which were more than 50 years old, a total of ten modern BDhe 2/4 railcars were procured from 1955. Each railcar has a cab on the valley side and is dependent on a control car that has a cab on the mountain side. The associated control cars either have a passenger compartment or serve as a cistern to supply the mountain station with water. Since the introduction of the Bhe 4/8 from 2016, they are increasingly being phased out, two years later only half were left.
