• Source: Rhaetian Railway Ge 3/3

The Rhaetian Railway Ge 3/3 is a class of metre gauge 11 kV 16.7 Hz AC electric shunting locomotives operated by the Rhaetian Railway (RhB), which is the main railway network in the Canton of Graubünden, Switzerland.
The class is so named under the Swiss locomotive and railcar classification system. According to that system, Ge 3/3 denotes a narrow gauge electric adhesion locomotive with a total of three axles, all of which are drive axles. There are only two locomotives in the Ge 3/3 class, and they are numbered 214 and 215.
Delivered by Robert Aebi (Raco) and Brown, Boveri & Cie (BBC), the Ge 3/3s feature some componentry — e.g., traction motor, compressor and vacuum pump — that are the same as the corresponding components in the second series locomotives of the Rhaetian Railway Ge 4/4 II class.
The orange liveried Ge 3/3 locomotives are used at major Rhaetian Railway stations: no 214 in Samedan and no 215 in Chur.
