After a long break (busy in studying), here are some new photos from my latest trip to Switzerland:

My train after arriving in Ospizio Bernina

Those units are on their way back to Pontresina after forming a St. Moritz-Ospizio Bernina relief service:

The first Bernina Express is heading south:

Now I took the next train down to Brusio. In Alp Grüm, I saw once again two ABe 4/4 I units:

I was lucky getting a photo of this empty stock move from Tirano to Poschiavo:

I got off this train 15 minutes earlier in Cavaglia, now it's arriving in Alp Grüm:

This viaduct was the reason for me to get off here:

The last train of the day. It will take me as far as Pontresina:

The wagons of my trains will go on to Landquart soon hauled by a Ge4/4 III

Quality shots there!
Reminds me when I was on a coach trip to Italy from Newcastle.
Covered the Austrian Alps, Germany, france, Belgium, Luxemburg,Switzerland.
The alps/tirol was the best especially seeing the locos go through the winding valeys etc etc.

Cheers

Andy
