On 20.05.2022, MRCE 193 701 was released with a special design for SBB Cargo International’s daughter company RT&S. Both sides show a”Ruhr” area landscape, one representing the past (yellow-red) and one depicting the future (blue/red). The locomotive also got a name: “Ruhrgebiet”.

RT&S Lokführer-Akademie was established back in 2016 in Duisburg, which explains why the company wanted to go back to its roots with this design. RT&S offers railway companies highly qualified railway staff.
