The Re 484 011 rolled out of the workshop in October 2021 complete with the slogan “Gut auf der Schiene – gut fürs Klima” (Great on the rails - great for the climate).

The depiction of the map of Switzerland with rail freight traffic passing through the middle symbolises the large increase in transport through Switzerland.
