Remarks & Notes |
The steamtrain with C 5/6 # 2978 "Elephant" and six cars, including a skylight mail car, is passing the San Nicola church in Giornico, which dates from the 12th century and is the most important building from the romanesque period in the Ticino. The train is running full speed on the 2.7 % grade on the return journey from Biasca to Erstfeld. |
