After arriving in Les Ponts-de-Martel as a return working for a school train (R 22 316), the transN (formerly CMN) BDe 4/4 railcar No. 8 is temporarily parked beyond the level crossing, near the bicycle parking area, in anticipation of the imminent arrival of train R 22 318 from La Chaux-de-Fonds. Following a quick two-minute turnaround, the train that arrived from La Chaux-de-Fonds will depart back toward La Chaux-de-Fonds. Meanwhile, the BDe 4/4 railcar No. 6—visible here—will depart for La Chaux-de-Fonds about half an hour later as train R 22 321, leading to the well-known passing of trains R 22 321 and R 22 320 at La Sagne.

Operating as a regional train from Les Ponts-de-Martel to La Chaux-de-Fonds, the BDe 4/4 No. 8 arrives at La Sagne station, where it must wait for the opposing train. The photo was taken from the local level crossing.

One of the arguably "most famous" train crossings in Switzerland: at La Sagne, the transN trains R22 9921 and 9920 cross paths once every (working) day. The transN BDe 4/4 no. 6 is en route to La Chaux-de-Fonds, while the BDe 4/4 no. 8 is heading in the opposite direction toward Les Ponts-de-Martel. The image also clearly illustrates the color differences between the two BDe 4/4 units, nos. 6 and 8. Photographed from the local level crossing.
