The following tram series are represented in the film: Be 4/6 Tram 2000 and Be 5/6 Cobra. At the end, there is the "Forchbahn" with three railcars of the Schindler/SIG Be 4/4 series, which runs as an S-Bahn.By leeseisenbahnen - February 25, 2012.

Postcard: Zürich railcar 16 at Forch (1987)Thomas Fischer, 75 years old, Forch Railway In 1836, the post office established a line over the Forch River to connect the population of the Zurich Oberland with the city. Several projects sought to develop the area by rail until 1905, when bus service began with the legendary Martini buses from Egg to Zurich. However, by 1912, this task was already taken over by the tram, which on weekdays primarily transported mail and agricultural goods such as milk, grain, fruit, or Etna a cow to the city, and on Sundays, transported holidaymakers from Zurich to the Forch River. This has long since evolved into an efficient suburban railway, which, on a quarterly student schedule, quickly transports the many commuters and schoolchildren through the tunnel (and on its own track) to the outlying communities, while goods are delivered by road directly to the customer as a "cargo destination." This, about the rolling stock, the future prospects, a few anecdotes, and much more: everything can be read in this detailed and beautifully designed commemorative publication. 96 pages with 130 mostly unpublished photos, maps, and documents, 25 of which are in color. ISBN 3 906681 04 1. Price: only CHF 44.80 Three historical map series are also available for CHF 12 each: Nos. 43 and 49 (black and white, real photos) and 140 (full color). Special offer, while stocks last: Commemorative publication and series 140 together for only CHF 49.90 -------------------------- The following are also available in the same series (CHF 39.80 per volume): 1) R.
