156 Photos
Die Galerie präsentiert eine umfangreiche Auswahl an Fotografien der Schweizer Elektrolokomotiven des Typs Re 425 (ehemals BLS Re 4/4) im Einsatz bei der BLS. Die Aufnahmen zeigen die Lokomotiven einzeln und in Mehrfachtraktion mit verschiedenen Zugarten, darunter Güterzüge, Regionalexpresszüge (RE), Autozüge und internationale Verbindungen. Zu den dargestellten Aufnahmeorten zählen Bahnhöfe und Streckenabschnitte wie Vevey, Weil am Rhein, Basel Badischer Bahnhof, Olten, Interlaken Ost, Spiez, Zweisimmen, Kandersteg, Sion, Lausanne, Villeneuve, Hohtenn, Ausserberg, Leissigen, Thun, Brig, Birg und Faulensee. Mehrere Bilder dokumentieren die Lokomotiven bei typischen Aufgaben, etwa dem Ziehen von Güterzügen, dem Schieben von Regionalzügen oder dem Einsatz vor dem Goldenpass-Zug. Einige Aufnahmen zeigen auch Besonderheiten wie Mehrfachtraktionen mit Re 465 oder das Zusammentreffen mit Fahrzeugen anderer Gesellschaften (z.B. SBB). Die Fotos decken einen Zeitraum von den 1990er Jahren bis 2012 ab und beinhalten Motive bei verschiedenen Wetterbedingungen und Tageszeiten.

In Kandersteg, the two BLS Re 4/4 192 and 184 as well as the BLS Re 465 004 are waiting for a new mission. Today, of the three AT1 car tunnel trains, only one with a BLS Re 4/4 (Re 425) was still in use, see above that the use of this multi-purpose locomotive must be expected to end soon. Sept. 12, 2024

The car tunnel trains on the AT1 route (and AT2 in high season) to Kandersteg (or Iselle) can be found photographically in a very awkward place in the Kandersteg train station and are therefore difficult to photograph. However, the route to the tunnel offers good opportunities to photograph the last BLS Re 4/4 in use. I still stayed at Kandersteg train station and was able to photograph the BLS Re 4/4 185 with its car tunnel train in the station. The train is waiting for the BLS RABe 521 to depart as R1 from Domodossola to Bern, in order to then travel as a service train towards Frutigen. January 3, 2024

The car tunnel trains on the AT1 route (and AT2 in high season) to Kandersteg (or Iselle) and AT 3 Brig Iselle are the last scheduled areas of operation for the BLS Re 4/4 (Re 425). The picture shows the BLS Re 4/4 185 waiting with its car tunnel train in the Kandersteg train station for the departure of the BLS RABe 521 as R1 from Domodossola to Bern (left in the picture) in order to then travel as a service train towards Frutigen.

Still going strond is BLS 179 at Brig on 1 January 2024. Although she has no duties, her pantograph is raised because the temperatures are sub-zero and catching current from the catenary warms the loco a bit, preventing frost damage.

The BLS Re 4/4 191 in Kandersteg. The end of use of the BLS Re 474 (Re 425) seems to be foreseeable. A few locomotives are still used in car tunnel traffic, but preparations are already being made to replace them in the form of the BLS Re 465.

I was now able to make up for the trip that was postponed in mid-December due to weather reasons (danger of landslides) and so the “last trip to Italy in 2023” has become the “first trip to Italy in the new year 2024”. It should be noted that the "trip to Italy" was more than short at just over 50 minutes... Long story short: through a fence loophole in Iselle I was able to use my old camera to shoot the BLS Re 4/4 194 with its AT3 ( Birg - Iselle car tunnel) and also include part of the Iselle reception building in the left part of the picture. Despite the blue sky, which here is only overexposed pink, the sun doesn't seem to find its way into the deep valley at this time of year. January 3, 2024

A scene from the past: BLS 168 banks an intermodal train out of Erstfeld on 6 June 2015. The Gotthard Line is SBB territory, so the BLS brownie is an interloper. Class BLS 425 are now rapidly disappearing and most freights do cross the Gotthard Pass under Erstfeld via the NEAT instead of through Erstfeld.
