History of this ADe:
The railcars FCE ADe 01-03, were a group of diesel-electric self-propelled rolling stock, built by Stanga-TIBB, of the Circumetnea Railway.
The railcars were commissioned in 1960, in a number of three units, to the Officine Meccaniche della Stanga, in order to replace the obsolete rolling stock on their railway lines; they were delivered to the Circumetnea Railway between the end of 1961 and the first months of 1962 and were registered as ADe 01 ÷ 03.
During the service carried out at the Circumetnea Railway, they were normally coupled with multiple commands, in pairs of two, with possible trailers.
From the nineties, the provision began, and in 2014 they were alienated for demolition.
The three railcars were set aside following the putting into service of the RALn 64 and the ADe 21-25.
Following the decommissioning of the passenger service, they remained for many years set aside at the Riposto station, together with ALn 541 (belonging to the series of ALn 541 and 542), and carriage n. 323. These railcars, including the ALn 541 and 542, and carriage no. 323, were sealed to prevent access to outsiders, due to the presence of asbestos inside them. In 2013, the decision was made to dispose of all the rolling stock described above for scrapping.
On 22 February 2014, the process for the demolition of the ADe 02 was started, then it was partially disassembled, loaded on a truck, and transported to the appropriate location for the completion of the demolition process, later the other rolling stock was also demolished. Which were set aside at the same station, except for ADe 03, which was acquired by a private individual.
