Through the European Alps in southwestern Switzerland, from Zermatt to St. Moritz, straddle two railway companies, the Rhaetian Railway and the Matterhorn Gotthard Railway, and slowly drive through the magnificent Alps train window for eight hours. It is gaining popularity as a panoramic sightseeing train to enjoy. At the front, the Ge4/4-Ⅱ and Ge4/4-Ⅲ locomotives and the ABe8/12 <Allegra> can pull the formation.

The passenger car was manufactured in about 10 years one after another and owned mostly by the RhB.

It is widely in use connected with panoramic passenger cars of Bernina Express or Glacier Express.
