BLS 420 501 stands in Spiez on 2 January 2020. Shortly after that, the BLS -that bought twelve SB B Re 4/4II second-hand- discarded themselves of the older loco class due to the influx of new EMUs. 

In her last year of service with the BLS, 420 501 pushes a regional train out of Spiez towards Interlaken Ost on 2 January 2020. This loco has been sold to Verein Extrazug.CH and that organisation is in the proces of restoring this loco back to her original condition as green SBB 11110, including the rounded head lights. It is planned that this loco will be unveiled in her original condition during the 150th anniversary of the Emmentahl Line (Burgdorf--Huttwill/Konolfingen) at Langnau in Emmenthal on 18 May 2025. 
