BLS 172 banks an intermodal train out of Spiez on 24 May 2002.

On 19 September 2021 SBB Historic 11411 shunts herself toward the sidings while an extra train leaves Erstfeld under the pouring rain.

A scene from the past: BLS 168 banks an intermodal train out of Erstfeld on 6 June 2015. The Gotthard Line is SBB territory, so the BLS brownie is an interloper. Class BLS 425 are now rapidly disappearing and most freights do cross the Gotthard Pass under Erstfeld via the NEAT instead of through Erstfeld.

In Kandersteg, the two BLS Re 4/4 192 and 184 as well as the BLS Re 465 004 are waiting for a new mission. Today, of the three AT1 car tunnel trains, only one with a BLS Re 4/4 (Re 425) was still in use, see above that the use of this multi-purpose locomotive must be expected to end soon. Sept. 12, 2024 

The car tunnel trains on the AT1 route (and AT2 in high season) to Kandersteg (or Iselle) can be found photographically in a very awkward place in the Kandersteg train station and are therefore difficult to photograph. However, the route to the tunnel offers good opportunities to photograph the last BLS Re 4/4 in use. I still stayed at Kandersteg train station and was able to photograph the BLS Re 4/4 185 with its car tunnel train in the station. The train is waiting for the BLS RABe 521 to depart as R1 from Domodossola to Bern, in order to then travel as a service train towards Frutigen. January 3, 2024 
