Remarks & Notes |
The oldest operational of the Ae 6/6 locomotives (and one of only two of the chromium series in green), 11404 from the year 1955, with an empty tank car train from Islikon to Basel shunting yard is passing Wiesendangen. In the morning the engine brought the heavy (1580 ton) full train from Basel to Islikon. Ae 6/6 are very rare in such severe duty today. |
