Very nice snow pictures of this marvellous high mountain railway, Stefan.
But are you sure that this picture was taken in Vallorcine, I guess it was taken in Chamonix.

In the still shady Vallorcine, the SNCF Z 800 002 is waiting as regional train 18975 for the onward journey to Martigny. The railcar arrived as TER 18903 from Chamonix and will exceptionally be through-routed to Martigny today. In the opposite direction, the TMR BDeh 4/8 22 is on its way, which is also being through-routed to Chamonix outside the regular timetable.

In Vallorcine, the SNCF Z 800 002 from Chamonix to Martigny crosses paths with the TMR BDeh 4/8 22 traveling in the opposite direction. Usually, a transfer is required in Vallorcine; here, the direct connection is likely due to a rolling stock rotation.

In Vernayaz MC, the SNCF Z 800 002 and the TMR BDeh 4/8 No. 21 meet, with the identical railcars only distinguishable by their markings indicating the owner, and operationally they run on one network or the other depending on demand.

The SNCF Z 800 003 (94 87 0000 806-3), operating as TER 18959 from Les Houches to Vallorcine, leaves at Montroc-le-Planet. The tunnel in the background can also be used by cars when the pass road is closed, although rail traffic will then be restricted.
