A little touch of history:
In Switzerland, SBB's double-decker express train carriages, which were purchased from 1997 onwards, are known as IC2000. These passenger cars, which are approved for 200 kilometres per hour, were originally purchased in five car types (Bt, B, BR, A, AD), but some of them may be slightly different. In addition, various changes have been made since delivery, so that there are later seven and today there are six different types. They differ from other European double-deck coaches mainly in the transition on the upper deck. After the extensive modernisation of the carriages, which was due to take place between 2019 and 2024 and cost 300 million francs, they will then be called IC2020.
