The red SBB Re 6/6 11630 (Re 620 030-7) Herzogenbuchsee is hauling a tank car block train between Rivaz and St-Saphorin on its way to St-Triphon.

Following problems with the ETCS and the withdrawal of the SBB Cargo Vectroms from non-ETCS routes, the SBB Cargo Vectroms can occasionally be seen again on the Simplon line, although the 193 077 at Rivaz, with its three carriages, can't complain about too much work.

It doesn't always have to be the Château de Chillon... In Rivaz, near the Château de Glérolles, a fishing boat chugs by, making the train in the background almost seem irrelevant, although the SBB RABDe 502 is rarely seen here. August 19, 2024 
