Lineas 186 455 hauls a Ford car train through Köln West on 15 february 2024.

A few hundred yards west from the railway station of Pratteln lies a well-known vantage point where nice pictures of freight trains can be made. This spot is about the only spot in Switzerland, where from public area decent photo's can be made of freights to/from both the Gotthard and Lötschberg railway lines -and of many an internal freight. One of the many freights at Pratteln on 13 February 2024 was hauled by Widmer Rail Service 475 902.

Widmer Rail Servicenb 430 115 hauls one of the many kerosene trains through Pratteln on 13 February 2024. Because Pratteln lies on three major freight arteries and is sited nog that far from Zürich Airport, plus the fact that Switzerland does not have many fossile fuels, many a kerosene train can be seen at Pratteln Thursdays to Saturday mornings. 
