BLS 172 banks an intermodal train out of Spiez on 24 May 2002.

On 19 September 2021 SBB Historic 11411 shunts herself toward the sidings while an extra train leaves Erstfeld under the pouring rain.

A scene from the past: BLS 168 banks an intermodal train out of Erstfeld on 6 June 2015. The Gotthard Line is SBB territory, so the BLS brownie is an interloper. Class BLS 425 are now rapidly disappearing and most freights do cross the Gotthard Pass under Erstfeld via the NEAT instead of through Erstfeld.

The two C 5/6 locomotives 2978 and 2969 are on their way from Bellinzona to Bellinzona. The steam train is being re-formed in Göschenen for the onward journey through the Gotthard Tunnel. The two steam locomotives were photographed before the SBB Re 4/4 II 11161 took the lead. Oct. 21, 2017 
