The SCB C 4 196, from 1902 SBB Ed 2x2/2 7696 with the current UIC number 90 85 00 07 696-7, is shunting in Sumiswald Grünen. The Mallet locomotive was built in 1893 at the J.A. Maffei locomotive factory (Munich). The steam locomotive was in service on the Hauenstein Line until 1915. Subsequently, it operated on the Le Pont - Le Brassus route with a short stay in Bavaria in 1918. In 1938, the locomotive was retired and stored until it was refurbished in 1958 and 1993. Today, the steam locomotive belongs to SBB Historic and is maintained and operated by the OeBB.

After the travel group had certainly enjoyed a good meal at a winery in Schafis, the OeBB RCe 2/4 607 (built in 1938/manufacturer SLM, MFO, BBC, and SAAS) returned to Balsthal. I was able to photograph the elegantly designed lightweight fast railcar passing through Ligerz, where only part of the former freight shed is visible. The RCe 2/4 607 was the last of seven delivered Red Arrows. The great success of these elegant trains quickly made the limited seating capacity a problem, and the railcars were subsequently used mainly for charter services. In 1974, the OeBB purchased the RCe 2/4 607 and operated the now blue-painted railcar between Oensingen and Balsthal. After an overhaul in 1988/89, it ran again as the  Red Arrow  for the OeBB. In 2022/23, the OeBB restored the railcar to its original form, as it can now be seen and experienced. June 19, 2025
