When one of the most beautiful sections of the Genova - Ventimiglia route near Cervia was replaced by a tunnel variant a few years ago, numerous photographers arrived in advance.
The Genova - Savona route opened in 1868. The Savona Ventimiglia continuation, which went into operation in 1972, led through difficult topography in many places and was largely routed along the sea and through the towns.
The route was initially electrified with three-phase current, later planned as V 25,000/50 Hz, and then finally in 1964/1967 it was supplied with FS DC 3000.
But by this time the single-track route along the sea was no longer sufficient to cope with the increasing traffic, so the first new routes were built in the Genova area at the end of the 1960s. In 1977, the Varazzo - Finale Ligure section was the first longer new construction section. Over time, others followed further west, but in Finale Ligure the first new section now meets the last original section. This is also the motif of the pictures from Finalie Ligure, here the FS Trenitalia IC 631 leaves the single-lane, 1136 meter long "Galleria Caprazoppa".

Led by an E 414 at the front and at the end, the FS Trenitalia IC 631 from Ventimiglia to Milano near Borgio Verezzi will soon reach its next stop, Finale Ligure. The section from Finale Ligure to Andora is currently the last section of the Genova - Ventimiglia route, which still follows the original route along the sea and through the towns and is intended to be re-routed in the longer term.

SNCF 22349 hauls a set of decommissioned locomotives out of Paris-Austerlitz on 19 September 2023. That the era of the nez-cassées is coming to an end is evident on 22349, that has her number chalked on her nose without eben a number plate.

Ftormer SNCB 9008 stands in the shed of the CFV 3V at Mariembourg on 22 September 2023. Class 90 is the firsat version of Class 91: in the 1970s SNCB decided to rebuild Class 90s into Class 91 shunters.
Leonardus Schrijvers
A little joke on the part of CFV3V, seen on 22 September 2023 at Mariembourg: Class 90 never had the latest NMBS/SNCB colours in grey with yellow and blue accents; neither did Class 91, but that ios no reason at all for CFV3V not to put 9011 in the latest national colours.

CFC/NMBS/CFV3V 5538 stands on 23 September 2023 in Treignes. The railways of Congo (Chemins de Fer du Congo) tried to buy three ex-SNCB Class 55s, but the deal fell through due to another civil war in that African country. The NMBS/SNCB was and is phasing out Class 55 rapidly and the 5538, which was to be opne of the Congolese locos, ended with the CFV3V that uses the loco on Diesel days and for some shunting duties. Since there are plans to give the loco a repaint back to original colours, anyone willing to photograph a quasi-Congolese Diesel in the Belgian Ardennes is advised not to wait for too long.

The Aosta Valley lies between Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn, so to speak, and there, about halfway between Chatillon Saint Vincent and Verres, a bimodular FS Trenitalia BUM BTR 813 as RV VdA 2722 is on the way from Aosta to Torino Porta Nuova to Aosta and crosses the river Dora Baltea by Borgo. I discovered the bridge a good month ago and when looking for a photo spot I quickly found a spot on the outskirts of the small village of Borgo. However, it was only on site that it became apparent that the vegetation had increased far more than I would have liked and I had to move my photo location to a bridge a little south. What the picture doesn't show is a hydroelectric power station on the left and the highway on the right. October 11, 2023

The ÖBB 1116 220 provides the “Transalpin” 19793 to Graz in Zurich. Although ÖBB locomotives are not uncommon in Zurich HB, they always come to Zurich with RJ sets. An ÖBB 1116 for SBB cars, however, is the exception. This is probably due to the fact that the train has the unusual route Zurich - Bregenz - Munich - Salzburg - Schwarzach St. Veit Bischofshofen - Leoben - Graz due to construction work. The EC Transalpin will run for 12 hours and 59 minutes.

Shortly before Erstfeld, most trains heading south leave the route of the "old Gotthard" railway and travel through the Gotthard bass tunnel. Since this is currently only in very limited operation, most passenger trains and some freight trains, with a few exceptions, are rerouted via the "old Gotthard railway route", now also called the "Gotthard Panorama route". This means that high-quality passenger trains are safe when passing through Erstfeld Daily life again for a short time. For the vast majority of these services, SBB Giruno RABe 501s are in use, which run in double traction wherever possible. In the picture, the SBB RABe 501 027 "Schaffhausen" is in the lead and the 501 010 "Basel Land" as IC 10865 from Zurich HB to Lugano passing through Erstfeld.

"Le Chablais en fête" - the BVB HGe 2/2 2 rack railway, built in 1899, can be seen in Chaulin. Since the B-C has no rack sections, the locomotive cannot drive independently on the B-C. The locomotive was originally painted gray, which gave it the name "La Grisette".

A red FS regional train and the station is not called "Ponte di San Martino" but "Pont S. Martin" - therefore this picture comes from the Aosta Valley. The view looks north from the southernmost train station and shows the FS Trenitalia BUM BTR 813 001 traveling as RV VdA 2718 from Aosta to Torino Porta Nuova. It will soon leave the Aosta Valley after its stop in Pont S.Martin and the subsequent onward journey. October 12, 2023

CFC/NMBS/CFV3V 5538 stands on 23 September 2023 in Treignes. The railways of Congo (Chemins de Fer du Congo) tried to buy three ex-SNCB Class 55s, but the deal fell through due to another civil war in that African country. The NMBS/SNCB was and is phasing out Class 55 rapidly and the 5538, which was to be opne of the Congolese locos, ended with the CFV3V that uses the loco on Diesel days and for some shunting duties. Since there are plans to give the loco a repaint back to original colours, anyone willing to photograph a quasi-Congolese Diesel in the Belgian Ardennes is advised not to wait for too long.

After its journey, the little steam locomotive "Shane" gets some care in the depot before the train goes on another journey. While the locomotive driver (not shown in the picture) supplies the locomotive with peat, the shunting worker oils it heavily, but interestingly enough, the locomotive does not receive any water during this short stay here.

This ten class strond Diesel rail cars were the first to receive this colour scheme that eventually and after much modifications would lead to the current NMBS/SNCB colour scheme. Not only The walloon have a Class 44, but the Flemish also can bask in the posession of a Class 44 rail car in these colours. That one is 4403 with the Sttomcentrum Maldegem.
