The end of an interesting journey: The BLS RE 11 4545 departs from Biel/Bienne and terminates in Iselle via Trasquera (continuation by bus due to special services). The train served Lyss, Zollikofen, Ostermundigen, Gümligen, Münsingen, Thun, Spiez, Mülenen, Reichenbach im Kandertal, Frutigen, Kandersteg, Goppenstein, Hohtenn, Ausserberg, Eggerberg, and Brig; but did not travel via Bern. The train consists of the BLS RABe 528 111 and 101.

his image of the train entering Iselle station from the Iselle Tunnel reveals an unusual train route: BLS RE 11 4545 is traveling from Biel/Bienne (departure at 7:34) to Iselle di Trasquera (arrival at 9:58). The train served Lyss, Zollikofen, Ostermundigen, Gümligen, Münsingen, Thun, Spiez, Mülenen, Reichenbach im Kandertal, Frutigen, Kandersteg, Goppenstein, Hohtenn, Ausserberg, Eggerberg, and Brig; therefore, it did not travel via Bern. The train consists of BLS RABe 528 111 and 101. Several buses are available for onward travel due to construction work. The property line between FS and SBB lies in the 169-meter-long Iselle Tunnel, shown here, of which 144 meters belong to SBB.

Due to construction work, buses are running as a rail replacement service between Iselle and Domodossola. In addition, the BLS is running its RE 1 trains to Iselle every hour (instead of every two hours). The photo shows a BLS RABe 528 departing for Bern in Iselle.

Many years ago, I was able to photograph the FS shunting locomotive E 321 009 at Roma Termini. This three-axle electric shunting locomotive was built between 1959 and 1964, was capable of speeds of 50 km/h, and the last locomotive was taken out of service in 2002.

An old photo from my archive: ETR 450 001 waits at Rome Termini for departure to Milan. The first-class train's travel time back then was remarkably short, just four hours! (Today, thanks to high-speed lines, the journey takes 2 hours 59 minutes.) Analogue photo from June 1991 Stefan Wohlfahrt
An old photo from my archive: Shortly after Taormina, an FS E 636 with a freight train travels along the sea. The train is on its way towards Messina.

The FS E. 646 127 arrives at the Firenze SMN station with a regional train. Interestingly, the two-axle baggage car directly behind the locomotive is a similar image from December 1987. Stefan Wohlfahrt
