Good evening all.

 

i have been on the lookout for a SBB Rbe 4/4 in plain green livery. I see that Piko do/did a green livery but with a red end. 

 

Does anyone know the significance of the different colour end? Was it for a certain line, region, or specific period at all?

Yes, the red end was added for visibility in the latter days of the all green livery on RBe 4/4 . If your layout is set in the mid 1908s to mid 1990s, a red end version is fine
