Train drivers and travelers enjoy the journey over the Gotthard Railway "Panorama" route on their journey to the south. The two SBB Giruno RABe 501 008 "Monte Ceneri" and 006 "Kt. Obwalden" were traveling from Zurich to Milano as EC 10315 when I was able to photograph the long train in Faido. A written confirmation from the locomotive driver is available, and a big thank you to Silvio for the information about the Giruno vehicle numbers.

In July 2016 I found a photo location north of Faido, just above the Broscerina Tunnel with a view of the 103 meter long Polmengo Bridge. When I visited the photo location again this year, I went one step further, more precisely, to an abandoned "guardian's house" just before the upper portal of the 1567 meter long Pratotunnel, which, as a 360 ° circular tunnel, overcomes a height difference of a good 40 meters. The picture shows the IC 10667 that is traveling from Basel SBB to Lugano and will reach the Prato circular tunnel immediately behind my back. I was able to photograph the two SBB Giruno RABe 501s again a good two minutes later on the Polmengo Bridge (see image ID 50365). It is precisely experiences like these that make the Gotthard Railway so attractive. September 4, 2023 
