The SNCF narrow-gauge diesel multiple unit X 74503 is traveling as TER 61285 from Salbris to Valençay and leaves Gièvres station after a rather long stop of nine minutes.

(ID 52912)

View from the road crossing of the Gièvres train station, where the Blanc-Argent shammal gauge line intersects with the standard gauge.

While the SBB RABe 511 020 is near Rivaz on the way towards Lusanne, the paddle wheel steamer Vevey can be seen on the lake in the background.

France / Narrow Gauge / Blanc-Argent

The SNCF narrow-gauge diesel multiple unit X 74503 is traveling as TER 61285 from Salbris to Valençay and leaves Gièvres station after a rather long stop of nine minutes. In Gièvres there is a connection to the standard gauge line Tours - Vierzon, the tracks of which can be seen in the foreground in the left part of the picture. Unfortunately, there were no standard gauge trains running when TER 61285 was in service. The long stay didn't make sense to me, but it was a good opportunity to take more photos of the train. The relatively long stay of the TER 61285, which I had already noticed when planning this photo excursion, was also the reason for photographing this train in Gièvres.

Until the work on the eastern bank of the Sense is completed, this motif of the outgoing BLS MIKA RABe 528 119 as S2 15247 with Laupen Castle as the background from the platform will have to suffice;
