The RABe 520 is an electric multiple unit used since 2002 by the Swiss Federal Railways. It is based on the Stadler GTW 2/8 model.




Features


The drive module at the middle of the train is able to develop a power of 760 kW, making it able to travel at 115 km/h (71 mph). The RABe 520 is slightly different from the standard Stadler GTW model: it has a greater capacity, a narrower body and an increased number of doors.




Service


As a quite small train, the RABe 520 is used on regional and S-Bahn lines.
It was first designed for the Seetalbahn line between Lenzburg and Luzern, and was also used on lines from and to both locations. The RABe 520 gradually saw use on other lines.
As of 2010, it can be seen on these routes :

S-Bahn Luzern :
Luzern - Lenzburg (S9)
Luzern - Brunnen (S3)
S-Bahn Aargau :
Lenzburg – Zofingen (S28)
Lenzburg/Othmarsingen – Rotkreuz (S26)
Aarau - Turgi
