The period after the Second World War is still very interesting for many Dutch train simmers. Not only because railway companies had to deal with the enormous damage left by the war years, but it was also a period of renewal and expansion. Apart from the disappearance of the steam locomotive, which is still regretted by many hobbyists, many new types of equipment made their appearance at NS in the fifties, surrounded by a lot of publicity. Following the establishment of the EEC in 1956, major European railway companies supported the initiative of the Dutch Railways (NS) to create a network of fast international connections under the name Trans Europ Express (TEE). The NS and the Swiss SBB / CFF then joined forces to build rolling stock for the Amsterdam-Zurich relationship. The four-part trainset that is the subject of this release was the result, with the Swiss industry (SIG and BBC) responsible for the two coaches and the driving trailer, while the Dutch Werkspoor NV constructed the engine unit. In 1957, the introduction of the Dutch-Swiss TEE at home and abroad attracted a striking amount of interest. Still, more than half a century later, this train is far from being forgotten. Two driving trailers and three coaches have even been saved from the cutter's torch, awaiting a full restoration. Unfortunately, the financial resources of the initiators have been insufficient to bring this expensive project to a successful conclusion. Known for its fast train connections between important European cities such as the Edelweiss (Amsterdam-Zürich and vice versa), the TEE ©2021 TrainworX/Wilbur Graphics, all rights reserved Release Version 1.0 3 Train Simulator – SBB/NS Ram TEE lives on not only in the memory of railway enthusiasts, but also in the minds of numerous railway modellists. Well-known manufacturers such as Roco and Märklin have produced a number of releases of this model over the years.
