Will the four Ge 4/4 I be scrapped? Could be, because the locomotive is not in the RhB's list of historic vehicles. But it is more likely that one or two locomotives will at least initially be retained for future use, as the locomotive is on the RhB's wish list/application list for historic vehicles.
It was the first narrow-gauge bogie locomotive. The first 4 locomotives were delivered in 1947 and another 6 locomotives in 1953. An expert report states that the historical value has been more or less lost due to modernization.
But the locomotive is not “worthless” in terms of its history. 76 years including renovation is also a story and that is probably the reason that two locomotives from this series would like to be preserved. One in red and one to be converted into the original form - whether this will be successful depends essentially on the financing. We will see.
