Rail Pictures, Railway Photos, Trains from Juni 2025

239 Photos
June 2025 was characterized by several railway anniversaries and festivals, most notably the 150th anniversary of the Emmentalbahn in Switzerland, which featured preserved locomotives such as JS-35, EBT 201, and Lok-3 LANGNAU running extra trains around Burgdorf, Konolfingen, and Sumiswald-Grünen. The Swiss Steam Festival 2025 was another highlight, with steam and electric locomotives like SEG G 2x 2/2 105 and RhB Bernina Bahn Ge 4/4 81 operating on the Blonay-Chaulin route, and disruptions due to the paddle steamer "La Suisse" being out of service. The narrow-gauge Mecklenburgische Bäderbahn in Germany also received special attention, with multiple views of its steam locomotives 99 2321-0 and 99 2322-8 and picturesque scenes between Kühlungsborn and Heiligendamm. Regular and special services involving BLS RABe 535 104 and VH MThB ABDe 4/4 No 12 were documented at Sumiswald-Grünen, especially in connection with the Gotthelf Market. Several photos captured operational challenges, such as technical failures at Köln leading to delays, and unique liveries or restored vehicles, like RFO 1831 and CD 754 018. Weather conditions ranged from sunny moments in Airolo to rainy scenes in Gallarate and freezing temperatures at Brennero. Multiple images focused on preserved and historic rolling stock, as well as the regional significance of events and infrastructure changes, especially in Switzerland and Germany.

The traditional Gotthelf Market takes place in Sumiswald, and for this market, the Emmental Railway runs several steam trains on the Sumiswald Grünen - Wasen i.E. line. The photo shows the E 3/3 853 of the Dampfbahn Bern association entering Sumiswald Grünen. The steam locomotive was built in Winterthur in 1890 under the factory number 629 and delivered to the J-S (Jura Simplon Railway) as the F3 853. At the SBB, the E 3/3 series shunting locomotives with the running numbers 851 - 853 were assigned to Group 82 and given the numbers 8571 - 8576. In 1911, the E 3/3 853 locomotive received a new boiler and was sold to the RVT, where it remained in service until 1928, when it was used as an  industrial shunting locomotive  by Von Roll in Gerlafingen and Klus. When diesel locomotives made the steam locomotive obsolete, the Düby Foundation saved it from scrap by handing it over to the DBB (German Railways). After its overhaul in 1983, it entered service on the Sensetalbahn, among other routes. After another overhaul in 2021, the DBB E 3/3 853 was used primarily on the Emmentalbahn line from Sumiswald-Grünen to Wasen i.E. Today, the E 3/3 853 bears the UIC number 90 85 0008 573-7.
