The RAe II is a dual-voltage electric train built for the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) and used exclusively for international services. Introduced in the 1960s, it was operated as a first-class international train under the name “TEE (Trans Europ Express)”, serving routes such as the “Gotthard” between Zurich and Milan.

Later, the trainsets were downgraded, modified, and repainted for “EuroCity” service, which continued until around 1999. After retirement, the RAe II was designated as a historic vehicle by the Swiss Federal Railways.

Around 2003, one set was partially refurbished—updating some equipment—and restored to its original TEE appearance. It remains active today, operating as a special event train.

This model replicates the refurbished version, featuring the iconic red-and-cream TEE livery!
