Triple Re 4/4 Meet |
| Description: |
As an Re 4/4 train departs from the right another is arriving from the left. Hidden behind the signal mast at left is another one. The Re 4/4 is something like the F40 of Switzerland and they are rapidly disappearing from use as newer equipment comes online so this was a great catch. They date from the late sixties. |

An Re 460 pulls into Zurich with an intercity train |
| Description: |
These units were built between 1991 and 1996 and are something like the P42 of Switzerland. The bodies were designed by Pininfarina, the legendary Italian design firm responsible for Ferraris, Alfa Romeos and other automobile brands. These are my favorite type of European electric locomotive. |
