Shortly before Erstfeld, most trains heading south leave
(ID 50602)
The FS Trenitalia IC 631 on the journey from Ventimiglia to Milan stopping at Finale Ligure train station.
Another transit of an SBB Giruno: the SBB RABe 501 009 Zürich is EC 10312 on the way from Milano to Zurich HB.



Shortly before Erstfeld, most trains heading south leave the route of the old Gotthard railway and travel through the Gotthard bass tunnel. Since this is currently only in very limited operation, most passenger trains and some freight trains, with a few exceptions, are rerouted via the old Gotthard railway route , now also called the Gotthard Panorama route . This means that high-quality passenger trains are safe when passing through Erstfeld Daily life again for a short time. For the vast majority of these services, SBB Giruno RABe 501s are in use, which run in double traction wherever possible. In the picture, the SBB RABe 501 027 Schaffhausen is in the lead and the 501 010 Basel Land as IC 10865 from Zurich HB to Lugano passing through Erstfeld. October 19, 2023

Due to the closure of the Gotthard Base Tunnel, all trains operated for several weeks via the old Gotthard railway lines, which are now called the Gotthard Panorama Route, resulting in a colorful range of operations. In the picture, a Re 460 with an IC heading north is passing through Göschenen. September 4, 2023
