The present invention relates to a rail vehicle front end, wherein the rail vehicle front end has a center buffer coupling having a free coupling end section such that the free coupling end section is connectable to a further center buffer coupling of a further rail vehicle front end, wherein the center buffer coupling extends along a longitudinal axis in a rest position, wherein the center buffer coupling is designed and mounted in such a way that the free coupling end section can be pivoted with respect to the longitudinal axis, wherein the rail vehicle front end has a front panel, wherein the front panel radially surrounds the center buffer coupling at least in sec-tions such that a front opening pointing substantially in the longitudinal direction is defined between the front panel and the center buffer coupling. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a cover device for covering the front opening extending between a front panel and a center buffer coupling of a rail vehicle.
