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.

New since the timetable change: The IC 1 trains from Geneva Airport to St Gallen (and several others) make a stop in Renens VD.

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