With the successful launch of “Coop-Rail” on 2nd October 2021, railCare took over an annual 30,000 dispatches with a net weight of 335,000 tonnes from SBB Cargo. To cope with the additional volume, it temporarily used 150 wagons of the type Hbbillns and Hbbillnss belonging to SBB Cargo. These were all equipped with “railCare” labels and a barcode on both sides especially for this limited 18-month deployment. Generally, however, the wagons were to be found not exclusively as block trains for railCare on the routes Wangen bei Olten (S) or Hunzenschwil (AG) to Niederbottigen (BE), to Brig (VS) or to Gossau (SG). Trains from the third to twenty-second wagon are prototypical.
