When one of the most beautiful sections of the Genova - Ventimiglia route near Cervia was replaced by a tunnel variant a few years ago, numerous photographers arrived in advance.
The Genova - Savona route opened in 1868. The Savona Ventimiglia continuation, which went into operation in 1972, led through difficult topography in many places and was largely routed along the sea and through the towns.
The route was initially electrified with three-phase current, later planned as V 25,000/50 Hz, and then finally in 1964/1967 it was supplied with FS DC 3000.
But by this time the single-track route along the sea was no longer sufficient to cope with the increasing traffic, so the first new routes were built in the Genova area at the end of the 1960s. In 1977, the Varazzo - Finale Ligure section was the first longer new construction section. Over time, others followed further west, but in Finale Ligure the first new section now meets the last original section. This is also the motif of the pictures from Finalie Ligure, here the FS Trenitalia IC 631 leaves the single-lane, 1136 meter long "Galleria Caprazoppa".

Led by an E 414 at the front and at the end, the FS Trenitalia IC 631 from Ventimiglia to Milano near Borgio Verezzi will soon reach its next stop, Finale Ligure. The section from Finale Ligure to Andora is currently the last section of the Genova - Ventimiglia route, which still follows the original route along the sea and through the towns and is intended to be re-routed in the longer term.

"Le Chablais en fête" at the Blonay Chamby train. The opening of the first section of the Bex - Villars 125 years ago, as well as the merger of some routes in the Chablais 80 years ago, was the reason for this year's autumn festival "Le Chablais en fête". A special attraction is the TPC's ASD BCFe 4/4 N° 1 "TransOrmonan" with its B 35 as a guest vehicle.

The Aosta Valley lies between Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn, so to speak, and there, about halfway between Chatillon Saint Vincent and Verres, a bimodular FS Trenitalia BUM BTR 813 as RV VdA 2722 is on the way from Aosta to Torino Porta Nuova to Aosta and crosses the river Dora Baltea by Borgo. I discovered the bridge a good month ago and when looking for a photo spot I quickly found a spot on the outskirts of the small village of Borgo. However, it was only on site that it became apparent that the vegetation had increased far more than I would have liked and I had to move my photo location to a bridge a little south. What the picture doesn't show is a hydroelectric power station on the left and the highway on the right. October 11, 2023

Autumn is also always the time of hunting and, as a result, various tasty game dishes. To mark this occasion, L'Association 141R568 invited people on a culinary tour again this year - with the "Train Chasse". The journey went from Vallorbe via Lausanne and Bern to La Chaux de Fond and back via Chabrelien and Lausanne to Vallorbe. Instead of the usual 141 R 568, this year the ex BLS Ae 6/8 205 was used. The picture shows the train on the outward journey upon arrival in Lausanne. October 14, 2023

The ÖBB 1116 220 provides the “Transalpin” 19793 to Graz in Zurich. Although ÖBB locomotives are not uncommon in Zurich HB, they always come to Zurich with RJ sets. An ÖBB 1116 for SBB cars, however, is the exception. This is probably due to the fact that the train has the unusual route Zurich - Bregenz - Munich - Salzburg - Schwarzach St. Veit Bischofshofen - Leoben - Graz due to construction work. The EC Transalpin will run for 12 hours and 59 minutes.

Shortly before Erstfeld, most trains heading south leave the route of the "old Gotthard" railway and travel through the Gotthard bass tunnel. Since this is currently only in very limited operation, most passenger trains and some freight trains, with a few exceptions, are rerouted via the "old Gotthard railway route", now also called the "Gotthard Panorama route". This means that high-quality passenger trains are safe when passing through Erstfeld Daily life again for a short time. For the vast majority of these services, SBB Giruno RABe 501s are in use, which run in double traction wherever possible. In the picture, the SBB RABe 501 027 "Schaffhausen" is in the lead and the 501 010 "Basel Land" as IC 10865 from Zurich HB to Lugano passing through Erstfeld.
