Don't worry, I won't be run over by the approaching train! At Bregenz Hafen, the through track (right in the picture) and the stub track on the left (in the picture/for the S-Bahn trains turning here) each have their own barrier.  
This allowed the SBB ETR 610 heading to Munich to be photographed from this position shortly after departure in Bregenz.

In the still shady Vallorcine, the SNCF Z 800 002 is waiting as regional train 18975 for the onward journey to Martigny. The railcar arrived as TER 18903 from Chamonix and will exceptionally be through-routed to Martigny today. In the opposite direction, the TMR BDeh 4/8 22 is on its way, which is also being through-routed to Chamonix outside the regular timetable.

The SNCF Z 800 002 (UIC 94 87 0000 802-2 F SNCF) is operating as a regional train from Chamonix to Martigny and was photographed during its stop in Finhaut. This direct run is likely due to a rolling stock rotation, as otherwise a transfer in Vallorcine would be necessary.

Due to planned maintenance work, a large part of the Gotthard trains will be routed via the panoramic route during the low-traffic period in the second week of January. This includes this SBB RABe 501  Giruno,  which is in Airolo heading towards Bellinzona.

In the  gap slots  of the two-hourly offered EC Zurich - Munich, the S7 runs from Romanshorn to Lindau Insel. At least on weekends. For some time now, however, also at certain times during the week and, as already mentioned, to Lindau Insel instead of previously to Lindau Reutin. The quite good frequency of the S7 should justify the relatively long stop at Lindau Insel; I assume that the service will be expanded in the future and thus can be  produced  more cost-effectively. The picture shows the Thurbo RABe 526 745-5 as S7 25889 departing from Bregenz. April 19, 2026

SBB LEX RABe 522 220 has arrived at the destination of its journey as Léman Express 23535 on the new RL7 line. The train was very well occupied. The route first follows the usual CEVA line, then goes through the approximately one-kilometer-long Chatalaine Tunnel before the line merges into the Genève - La Plaine line. But back to the picture: The train is now standing in Vernier and must be quickly parked, as the RL5 to La Plaine will arrive in a few minutes. The train will be parked at the former station and current cargo site Vernier-Meyrin. Whether it will remain there until the evening for the return service is unknown to me. April 16, 2026

The BAM MBC Re 4/4 II (UIC 91 85 4420 506-8 CH-MBC) arrives at Morges with its gravel train from Gland, where the train is loaded onto rollbocks for onward transport to Apples. In the background of the image, you can see the TRAVYS diesel locomotive 92 85 8846 601-3, about which I currently have no further information.

The new Region Alps EVO RABe 733 are increasingly seen in scheduled service, consequently the deployments of the Region Alpes Nina RABe 525 and Domino trains will decrease. In Martigny, the Region Alpes RABe 733 703 reaches as R91 on its way to Monthey, while the Region Alpes NINA RABe 525-039 waits for departure to Le Châble.
