The Railpool 186 497 is waiting in Airolo for its train to be loaded with excavated material from the Gotthard road tunnel (2nd tube) in order to then take the train to Flüelen.

Of course, I also photographed the RABe 501 "Giruno", which has since become dominant on the Gotthard axis; No matter how dominant they may be, they are not an everyday occurrence on the "Gotthard Panorama Route": As a result of planned maintenance work in the Gotthard Base Tunnel, most IC/EC will run from Monday to Friday from January 13th to January 24th, 2025 via Göschenen - Airolo .

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 
