The Akiem locomotives 186 901 - 910 have been running for SBB Cargo International since December 2020 and are mainly used in Rola traffic between Freiburg and Novara. As a result, all ten 186s bear the address of RAlpin AG on one side, while the second side reflects a revision of the existing Alppiercer design. The "Katzenberg" coat of arms, specially created for the locomotive, depicts the south portal of the 9.38 km long tunnel, which has been part of the Basel-Karlsruhe expansion project since 2012, immediately after the Swiss border, and which went into operation. The Katzenberg tunnel between Bad Bellingen and Effringen Kirchen is one of many strategically important tunnel structures on the north-south corridor of SBB Cargo International and RAlpin AG.
