Childhood memories!
I grew up in Rapperwil and as a child was fascinated by the unusual colors and - then - modern look of these trains. On the frequent trips to Zurich along to "Gold Coast" of Lake Zurich, I favoured the "Chiquita" over the other trains. I then didn't knew about their construction failures; their aluminum carbodies tended to sag like a banana, which gave them their nickname.
