While the SBB Re 4/4 II 11288 (Re 420 288-3) "AVANTI TUTTA!" is waiting to depart in Martigny with its local freight train, a BLS RABe 528 MIKA from St-Gingolph arrives in Martigny. The BLS train was leased by the Alpes region because the increased frequencies could no longer be handled until the delivery of the new EVO multiple units. 12.09.2024 
