With BLS Re 465 003 at the head, followed by an Re 475 and BLS Re 465 013 as a pusher locomotive (not visible here), a long freight train travels through Preglia up the southern ramp of the Simplon Pass towards Brig. A palm tree on the far right adds a touch of southern flair. October 31, 2024 

Due to construction work, buses are running as a rail replacement service between Iselle and Domodossola. In addition, the BLS is running its RE 1 trains to Iselle every hour (instead of every two hours). The photo shows a BLS RABe 528 departing for Bern in Iselle. August 17, 2024 

his image of the train entering Iselle station from the Iselle Tunnel reveals an unusual train route: BLS RE 11 4545 is traveling from Biel/Bienne (departure at 7:34) to Iselle di Trasquera (arrival at 9:58). The train served Lyss, Zollikofen, Ostermundigen, Gümligen, Münsingen, Thun, Spiez, Mülenen, Reichenbach im Kandertal, Frutigen, Kandersteg, Goppenstein, Hohtenn, Ausserberg, Eggerberg, and Brig; therefore, it did not travel via Bern. The train consists of BLS RABe 528 111 and 101. Several buses are available for onward travel due to construction work. The property line between FS and SBB lies in the 169-meter-long Iselle Tunnel, shown here, of which 144 meters belong to SBB. August 17, 2024 
