The Rhaetian Railway (RhB) is one of Switzerland's largest private railways, operating a network of more than 400 km, mainly in the canton of Graubunden. The modern RhB was formed through the integration of the former Landquart-Davos Railway, Bernina Railway and Chur-Arosa Railway.

This special ABe 8/12 'Allegra' set marks 100 years since the formation of today's RhB, as well as the 15th anniversary of its UNESCO World Heritage designation. The train carries a revival livery inspired by the railway's predecessor companies.

Each car in the three-car set carries a different wrapping design, representing the historic liveries of the lines now operated by the Allegra units. The formation is known locally as the 'Ahnenzug', or Ancestor Train, combining modern RhB rolling stock with nostalgic colour schemes.
