CFC/NMBS/CFV3V 5538 stands on 23 September 2023 in Treignes. The railways of Congo (Chemins de Fer du Congo) tried to buy three ex-SNCB Class 55s, but the deal fell through due to another civil war in that African country. The NMBS/SNCB was and is phasing out Class 55 rapidly and the 5538, which was to be opne of the Congolese locos, ended with the CFV3V that uses the loco on Diesel days and for some shunting duties. Since there are plans to give the loco a repaint back to original colours, anyone willing to photograph a quasi-Congolese Diesel in the Belgian Ardennes is advised not to wait for too long.

After its journey, the little steam locomotive "Shane" gets some care in the depot before the train goes on another journey. While the locomotive driver (not shown in the picture) supplies the locomotive with peat, the shunting worker oils it heavily, but interestingly enough, the locomotive does not receive any water during this short stay here.

Ex-SNCB 4407 stands at Mariembourg with the CFV3V on a sunny 23 September 2023. This ten class strond Diesel rail cars were the first to receive this colour scheme that eventually and after much modifications would lead to the current NMBS/SNCB colour scheme. Not only The walloon have a Class 44, but the Flemish also can bask in the posession of a Class 44 rail car in these colours. That one is 4403 with the Sttomcentrum Maldegem.

As has often been the case, I chose the route home from the Gotthard via MGB and in Birg I had the opportunity to photograph something not seen here on the Gotthard: the FS Trenitalia ETR 610 008 leaves the Brig train station as EC 39 from Genève to Milano on the way Domodossola.

The Andermatt - Disentis trains are usually transported by HGe 4/4II locomotives over the Oberalp Pass, whereby the locomotive of the Disentis - Andermatt train then remains behind in Andermatt after the train has departed from Andermatt to Disentis and transports the next train to Disentis. Due to the extensive renovation of the small station, it was unfortunately hardly possible to photograph the train to Disentis, so the locomotive mentioned in the text is shown here, in this case the MGN HGe 4/4 II 106 "San Gottardo".

The BLS Re 465 002 leaves Spiez station with the GoldenPass Express 4064 from Montreux to Interlaken. Especially in Spiez, where north-south transit freight trains and DB ICE also run, the gauge change wagons reveal their fascination! I had the pleasure of traveling from Montreux to Spiez on the train shown here. The Gauge change process in Zweisimmen was surprisingly disappointing - you hardly noticed anything! That's precisely why I continue to be of the opinion that the ingenious technology should be used more in everyday traffic instead of just in purely tourist traffic, such as Bern - Lenk or Zurich - St. Moritz.
