The Lima N Gauge Re 4/4 I 10047 on my N-Szenerie 30.07.2025

Side view on Lok-3 LANGNAU -that was just restored to fully operational conditions a few weeks before- at Burgdorf on 17 May 2025.

How times change: a few years ago, I would have turned up my nose and not photographed the ICN passing through Airolo. Today, I'm happy to be able to photograph an ICN among all the "Giruno" trains: an SBB RABDe 500 passes by as an IC on its way north.

Lok-3 LANGNAU of the DBB hauls Lok 853 into the Depot of Burgdorf on 17 May 2025.

The Blonay-Chamby steam service is arriving at the Chaulin station and the Hg 3/4 N° 3 (by the B-C) is shouting to the depot.

In addition to the ICNs pictures (see 54934), I also photographed the RABe 501 "Giruno" trains, which have since dominated the Gotthard axis. While they may be dominant, they are not a common sight on the "Gotthard Panorama Route": Due to planned maintenance work in the Gotthard Base Tunnel, most IC/EC trains will run via Göschenen - Airolo from Monday to Friday from January 13 to January 24, 2025. After the sun disappeared behind the mountains in Airolo at midday, it appeared in Göschenen at the appropriate time from midday. The photo was taken near the entrance signal in Göschenen and shows the two SBB RABe 501 016 "Glarus" at the front and 501 008 "Monte Ceneri" at the rear as IC 21 10671 on the journey from Basel SBB to Lugano.
