With an hourly output of 7,850 kW and a top speed of 140 km/h, the Re 6/6, which first entered 
service in 1972, is still considered one of the most powerful locomotives in Switzerland today. In 
order to achieve high speeds in curves, the Bo'Bo'Bo' axle arrangement became the preferred model 
compared to the standard Co'Co'. The more complex three bogies – a further development of the Re 4/4 
II – also proved to be very advantageous in terms of wheel flange and track wear. The Re 6/6 is seen 
everywhere, whether in single-engine, in multi-unit control with other engines of its kind, and 
above all in freight transport, mainly as the so-called Re 10/10 together with a Re 4/4 II or Ad 
4/4 III.
