How well the CJ can still open the windows on some trains (but unfortunately can hardly be closed anymore...): When entering Combe Tabeillon I was able to photograph the CJ Be 4/4 616 with a freight train. The freight train waits for our train and then heads towards La Chaux de Fonds. Combe Tabillon is a Spitzkher station, as can still be found every now and then in the Jura. January 13th 2025 

The CEV MVR ABeh 2/6 7504 "Vevey" is waiting in the snowy Les Avants as R 34 2317 for the departure (from 1:13 p.m.) to Montreux (at 1:43 p.m.). As the kilometer sign on the contact line mast on the right of the picture shows, Montreux is only 8 km from Les Avants. What is not visible here is the height difference of 575 meters from Les Avants (970 m) to Montreux (395 m). January 3, 2025 

The Combe Tabeillon train station was built at the very back in the deep valley. Here the CJ trains change their direction on the journey from Glovelier to La Chaux de Fonds. Through this hairpin bend, the route gains the necessary altitude on this route. In the picture the CJ Be 4/4 with its ABt 712 shortly before continuing its journey. Jan 13, 2025 
