Two SBB GIRUNO RABe 501s are in Faido on their way south.

(ID 50435)

A SOB TRAVERSO RABe 526 drives as Treno Gottardo over the 103 meter long Polmengo Bridge, on the way to Locarno Sept.

The SOB TRAVERSO, the RABe 526 218 on the way to Locarno leaves Faido.

Two SBB GIRUNO RABe 501s are in Faido on their way south. At first glance, Faido train station appears as it did before the GTB went into operation, but upon closer inspection (and it is hardly visible in the photo) tracks 1 and 4 are no longer in use, the switches are screwed and the contact line is grounded.

In July 2016 I found this photo location north of Faido, a little above the Broscerina Tunnel with a view of the 103 meter long Polmengo Bridge, which bridges the Ticino River here.

Due to planned maintenance work, a large part of the Gotthard trains will be routed via the panoramic route during the low-traffic period in the second week of January. This includes this SBB RABe 501 "Giruno," which is in Airolo heading towards Bellinzona. January 21, 2025 

In addition to the ICNs pictures (see ID 54934), I also photographed the RABe 501 "Giruno" trains, which have since dominated the Gotthard axis. While they may be dominant, they are not a common sight on the "Gotthard Panorama Route": Due to planned maintenance work in the Gotthard Base Tunnel, most IC/EC trains will run via Göschenen - Airolo from Monday to Friday from January 13 to January 24, 2025. After the sun disappeared behind the mountains in Airolo at midday, it appeared in Göschenen at the appropriate time from midday. The photo was taken near the entrance signal in Göschenen and shows the two SBB RABe 501 016 "Glarus" at the front and 501 008 "Monte Ceneri" at the rear as IC 21 10671 on the journey from Basel SBB to Lugano.
