On the Lausanne - Biel/Bienne line, long-distance traffic is firmly in the hands of the SBB ICN RABDe 500. However, due to the construction-related closure of the Fribourg - Bern line, two additional train pairs per day are running from Neuchâtel to Lausanne and back to relieve the scheduled ICN trains. Typically, one of these train pairs is operated by two RABe 502 "Twindexx" trains. The photo shows the Twindxx, which is otherwise rarely seen on this line, with the RABe 502 225 and the RABe 502 402 "Biel/Bienne" as IR 30071 from Lausanne to Neuchâtel passing through Chavornay.

As can be seen here, SBB RABDe 502 (Twidnexx) trains are increasingly dominating long-distance services. The picture from Lausanne shows an IR 15 to Geneva and an IC1 to St. Gallen. June 8, 2025 

It doesn't always have to be the Château de Chillon... In Rivaz, near the Château de Glérolles, a fishing boat chugs by, making the train in the background almost seem irrelevant, although the SBB RABDe 502 is rarely seen here. August 19, 2024 

The SBB RABe 502 Twidexx have already taken over a significant part of the traffic and are therefore dominating the business.

It's almost like being on a model railway: a barely noticeable hill and full of holes like Swiss cheese from the nearby Emmental: Wanzwil.
