The four shunting locomotives Gmf 4/4 242 and 243, in service with the Rhaetian Railway in Switzerland since 1991, are practically the most reliable “beasts of burden” in Switzerland: the locomotives are designed to transport loads at low speeds over long distances. They are even used to tow damaged trains.
