The railcars had half the power of a Be 4/4, since only one bogie was motorised. The essential parts of the electrical equipment were compatible with Be 4/4 sets. The BTB became the owner of locomotives no. 105 and 106 and railcars 126–131. In operation, however, more locomotives and fewer railcars were needed and allocations were adjusted within the operating group. 1685: 1677: 1411: 1365: 1611: 1165: 787: 1133: 985: 735: 713: 1158: 856: 794: 547: 361: 315: 1277: 863: 540: 368: 322: 257: 1247: 1100: 1070: 1037: 1007: 955: 925: 895: 826: 757: 683: 653: 623: 593: 495: 465: 435: 407: 285: 1494:

The power was supplied by the Kander power plant at a primary voltage of 16 000 Volt at the then marketable frequency of 40 Hertz and carried by a three-wire overhead line along the track. This line also served to supply the town of Burgdorf. The power was reduced to 750 volts at 14
