The "Festival Suisse de la vapeur" (Swiss Steam Festival 2025) always delights (at least me) with its eclectically operated trains, such as the magnificent Bernina Railway RhB Ge 4/4 81 of the Blonay Chamby Railway, which is waiting with a train in Blonay for departure. June 8, 2025

The CJ RBDe 567 182 (UIC 94 85 7 567 182-1) has arrived in Alle with its shuttle train as R51 26430 and is quickly turning around for the return journey to Porrentruy. From the timetable change onwards, SBB Flirt trains will take over the service on the Delémont - Porrentruy - Bonfol and Porrentruy - Bonfol routes every half hour, and the CJ trains will then be retired.

The SNCF C 20155 UIC No. 97 85 1 932-0 (formerly SBB Ee 3/3 II 16515, ex SNCF C 20155) belonging to the ‘Team C-20155’ association stood behind switch 12 in Balsthal and waited until the R22 had turned around. It is now driving to the platform to take interested parties on a ride in the driver's cab to Klus and back. The Ee 3/3 II travels at block distance to the half-hourly R22 towards Klus and then returns to Balsthal before the R22 makes its return journey.

When I rushed out of the office and snapped a photo of the Railadventure Re 6/6 11603 (Re 620 003-4), it was already too late; I have no idea what the locomotive is doing at the end of this train or what kind of train it is. (The day before, a Stuttgart S-Bahn transfer train was carrying a surprising number of container wagons).

In 1844, the first railway line from France reached Basel. In 1957, the line was electrified. While the change in the power system did not pose a problem for passenger trains, freight trains between the marshalling yards of St-Lous and Muttenz had to be powered by diesel locomotives, resulting in complaints from residents living along the line about exhaust fumes. The SNCF subsequently purchased nine dual-current locomotives, C 20151 to C 20519, which were derived from the SBB Ee 3/3 II. From 1962 onwards, these small locomotives, with a maximum speed of only 40-60 km/h, were used in double traction for SNCF freight transport between St-Louis and Muttenz. The nine locomotives were replaced by the SNCF BB 20200 in 1971/1972 and sold to the SBB. On 9 May 1963, Schweizerische Lokomotiv- und Maschinenfabrik Winterthur delivered the C 20188 to the SNCF and, as mentioned above, sold it to the SBB in 1971/1972, which used it as a shunting locomotive, most recently in Basel SBB until 2011. The locomotive then went to the Yverdon industrial works, where it moved ICN trainsets until 2019. In 2020, it was parked in Biel/Bienne and later transferred to Balsthal with the aim of putting the last remaining dual-current Ee 3/3 back into service.
As can be seen, ‘Team C 20155’ has done an excellent job, and the interesting locomotive, in its SNCF livery, is a particularly beautiful gem on Swiss tracks. The picture shows the locomotive in Balsthal during preparations for the open day on 8 November 2025.
