Not only the Kerst-Express steam special to Essen Hbf could be admired at Arnhem on a grey 17 December 2022, but also a steam shuttle that acted between Arnhem and Ede-Wageningen.

Even today, Ee 3/3 locomotives can still be seen in operation, although the Ee 3/3 16408 (97 85 1930 408-0) of RUWA shown here is enjoying the weekend rest on this Saturday and is probably one of the very last Ee 3/3s still in service (another one was still in Sumiswald on this day).

The beautifully restored SNCF C 20155 UIC No. 97 85 1 932-0 (formerly SBB Ee 3/3 II 1615, formerly SNCF C 20155) is on its way from Balsthal to Klus and was photographed near the ‘A’ entry signal in Balsthal. 8 November 2025 

The SNCF C 20155 UIC No. 97 85 1 932-0 (ex SBB Ee 3/3 II 16515, ex SNCF C 20155) of the "Team C-20155" association is leaving Balsthal towards Klus. The three-point signal indicates that this is a train movement. The dual-current Ee 3/3 II, originally designed as a shunting locomotive, was procured by the SNCF in a number of nine units as mainline locomotives for freight trains between Saint Louis and Muttenz. This was due to complaints from local residents following the electrification of the SNCF line between Mulhouse and Basel. This is quite surprising, as Basel was considered a stronghold of steam operation in Switzerland around 1960! Incidentally, years later, similar complaints prevented the continuous use of CC 72000 diesel locomotives for the Line 4 long-distance trains from Paris Est to Basel. In Belfort or Mulhouse, the locomotive had to be changed in most cases. But back to the SNCF C 20155 UIC No. 97 85 1 932-0 (ex SBB Ee 3/3 II 16515, ex SNCF C 20155) of the association "Team C-20155". But back to the SNCF C 20155 UIC No. 97 85 1 932-0 (ex SBB Ee 3/3 II 16515, ex SNCF C 20155) of the "Team C-20155" association. A rare example of an SNCF locomotive, which after a good ten years went to the SBB and spent a good forty years shunting there, was later saved from scrap and restored "back" to its original SNCF version. This may seem surprising and not entirely uncontroversial. However, I think the solution is excellent; it really makes this beautiful locomotive stand out. Furthermore, while the locomotive may have been used by the SNCF in mainline service and, in cross-border traffic, ran roughly half the time on SNCF and half on SBB lines, if you consider the territorial border, the SNCF C 20150 locomotives only traveled three kilometers in France out of a total of 15 kilometers between Saint Louis and Muttenz.
