RB48 Bonn - Wuppertal Ersatzzug

[Richard Scott]

Does anyone know what loco is currently working the unit replacement on RB48? Thought I heard rumours of 110469 returning?

I think you might get better gen on Drehscheibe-online - the last report of 110 469 on RB48 is dated 20th, but no indication of anything else either.

@Mag_seven took a photo of it a few days ago, if this would be recent enough to help you?

(I don't do numbers )

Photo would give a good indication, thanks!

Thanks, thought it had reappeared.

110 469 confirmed as the loco when I did it a few days ago.

Thanks, confirmed on it today too!

Wow is that still going - I had 100 469 on it back on March 2019!

Is there a list of workings for this? Surprised it's still going, been meaning to clear it myself for years!

It has very recently changed from n-Wagen to double deckers, and is currently being hauled by 111111 in traditional S-Bahn grey and orange livery.

Typical!

Thank you anyway.

No worries. Pretty annoyed about the change myself as I'll have missed the n-Wagen by about a week! Fortunately I did do it with the 110 and n-Wagen a few years back, and was similarly amazed at how long it lasted.

Suppose it's a standard DB interior then? Maybe at least an older one?

Not seen any interior photos/videos, but I'd hazard a guess that it's this interior judging from external photos:

Thanks. When are you doing it?

 

[YorkshireBear]

Shame was hoping to grab it in December

 

[317666]

Thanks. When are you doing it?

Hopefully next week. If I do I'll let you know what's on it!

Went out for it today but it was the usual 442s rather than a hauled set of any description. All was not lost though, bagged an ICE-1 to Bonn instead!

Grim! At least you saved it.
