Visual Impact
642 is the latest loco to receive a new paint scheme, comprising hundreds of photos of RhB staff and tied round with a red ribbon. Side on it looks a bit of a mess but from the front the red predominates and the livery works a lot better, especially coming out of a dark rockface with a snowcapped mountain behind.642 was working train RE1149 from Chur to St. Moritz and was photographed approaching Celerina on 15 October 2009. As can be seen, RE1149 conveyed a Glacier Express portion ahead of the normal coaches.
