For the 175th anniversary of railways in Switzerland, ROCO presents the electric locomotive double traction Re 10/10 as special anniversary edition. The locomotives in green SBB livery had decorative stripes and coats of arms.

The double traction of Re 4/4ˡˡ and Re 6/6 is called Re 10/10 for simplicity. This name derives from the ten powered axles that the double “team” has and does not refer to a particular locomotive type. The SBB uses the Re 10/10 primarily to haul heavy goods trains on the Gotthard route. The bullish double manages to pull a maximum load of 1,400 tonnes on the train hook at 80 kilometres per hour on a gradient of 26 per mille.
