An SBB RABe 500 ICN arriving at Grenchen Nord coming from Basel.
Once a day (and direction), from Monday to Friday, an RE 56 still arrives at Grenchen Nord station in Grenchen Nord.



Once a day (and direction), from Monday to Friday, the IR 56 and RE 56 cross at Grenchen Nord, providing not only a colorful scene but also hope that the Pronturter region will not be cut off from the rest of Switzerland in the future. The SBB RABe 522 210 as RE 56 4561 from Bonfol to Biel/Bienne crosses at Grenchen Nord with the BLS RABe 528 132, which is traveling as IR 56 1861 from Biel/Bienne to Basel SBB. January 13, 2026

Foreign signals and overhead lines quickly give it away, this SBB LEX RABe 522 was not photographed in Switzerland. The SBB LEX RABe 522 223 will leave Annemasse under 25000 volts/50 Hz as RL4 23227 to Coppet, but after just a few hundred meters the power system switches to SBB 15000 volts 16 2/3 Hertz.

At first glance, a mundane shot: a rear view of an SBB LEX RABe 522; the special feature: the SBB RABe 522 229 is operating as RL7 23535 on its way from Annemasse to Vernier and leaves the CEVA line at Jonction to reach Vernier via the connecting track. This connecting track was not used by passenger trains until the timetable change 2025/26 and is electrified with 25,000 volts 50 Hertz. It serves the (light) freight traffic from Genève La Praille to France (or local freight traffic). Unfortunately, I have not found a route number for this line. July 23, 2023
