While the MOB GoldenPass Express GPX 4068 leaves Montreux in the picture on the right, another one is ready on the left in the picture.

I have often mentioned that “my” popular MOB photo locations in the surrounding area are hardly suitable for the GoldenPass Express due to backlighting.

The CEV MVR ABeh 2/6 7504 "Vevey" is waiting in the snowy Les Avants as R 34 2317 for the departure (from 1:13 p.m.) to Montreux (at 1:43 p.m.). As the kilometer sign on the contact line mast on the right of the picture shows, Montreux is only 8 km from Les Avants. What is not visible here is the height difference of 575 meters from Les Avants (970 m) to Montreux (395 m). January 3, 2025 

Barely 19 minutes after the departure from the snow-covered Les Avants, the CEV MVR ABeh 2/6 7504 "Vevey" is on the way as R 34 2317 to Montreux near Planchamp (530 m above sea level) between strong palm trees. January 3, 2025 

After it snowed overnight, the landscape above about 800 meters above sea level appears in a magical winter dress for a short time. Reason enough to drive to Les Avants, located at 900 meters above sea level, and capture the white splendor before it melts away. Against the backdrop of snow-covered forests, the CEV MVR ABeh 2/6 7507 is on the way from Montreux to Les Avants as RE 34. January 3, 2025 
