These stunning BLS RABe 528 trains took me from Brig to Spiez through the Bernese Alps. Beautiful route, and the trains are superb. There is even a vending machine bistro and dining area on these small electric units! 👌 🇨🇭🏔

#Iselle 🇮🇹 near the south portal of the #Simplon tunnel earlier today. The first station in #Italy when travelling from the north, and beautifully decorated. 🌼🌷
The trains are #Swiss🇨🇭: #BLS is operating regional passenger services and a car-carrying tunnel shuttle from #Brig.

#Spiez 🇨🇭 in the early 2000s: pictured here are three #NS 🇳🇱 carriages, a type MUn sleeper, a former “TUI Ferienexpress” couchette and a former DB “basic” couchette. Originating at Brig earlier that evening, they represent a portion of an overnight service to the #Netherlands.

My aim for stopping here was to catch BLS’ “MIKA” FLIRT set, which will be taking me over the original Lötschberg Line to Brig. For a regional train, the interior looks absolutely fantastic, so can’t wait for the ride over the Bernese Alps. Let’s go! 🇨🇭

Pictures taken, around the turn of the millennium, on the #Lötschberg 🇨🇭 line, travelling from #Spiez to #Brig in a Swiss fresh air coach. This is an #InterCity from #Basel, probably IC 331 “Val d’Ossola” with the first six air-conditioned cars, provided by #FS #Trenitalia, going as far as #Milano 🇮🇹.

A photo taken while on a hike through the #Lavaux vineyards bordering Lac Léman in January 2008: an #SBB🇨🇭#Geneva to #Brig service is speeding through #Epesses station. The train is hauled by a Class 460 electric and includes EW IV stock in its original green and light grey livery and an ex-SNCF van.

Morning from Brig! 🇨🇭
Heading towards Thun on the slower route via Kandersteg today.
This runs parallel to the mainline towards Visp climbing up the side of the mountain giving some amazing views of the valley! 😍

The Northern portal of the Lötschberg Base Tunnel is here, used primarily by Intercity and EuroCity traffic travelling from Bern to Brig or Italy. BLS regional trains like this one however take the longer yet more scenic Lötschberg Line, the original route prior to 2007… 🇨🇭

Vanuit #Termen / #Brig in Oberwallis 🇨🇭 ben je met de trein (of auto) in circa 20 minuten in bella Italia 🇮🇹 en proef je meteen de Italiaanse sferen of een heerlijke espresso ergens op een pleintje of steegje. Foto vanmorgen vanuit het gezellige #Domodossola

#Brig 🇨🇭 in the winter sun. Pictured here is the #Stadler #MGB ABeh 8/12 301 #Orion unit for #Andermatt. This is the street-level part of the transport hub, for narrow gauge trains to Zermatt and the upper Rhone valley. Mainline services would leave from the upper level, to the right.

Now made it to Brig! 🇨🇭
And there’s a few more trains here than Brigg 😂
Changing here onto Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn to climb almost 1000m to Zermatt!

Good morning from a very sunny Brig! 🇨🇭
I’ve arrived on MGB from my hotel in Mörel and just noticed a nice old departure board on these platforms
Now I’ve got a pendolino taking me north through the Lötschberg base tunnel towards Bern 😁

#Brig🇨🇭 to #Domodossola 🇮🇹 earlier today, via the #Simplon railway line on board a #BLS #RABe528 #Stadler #FLIRT “Mika” trainset. The unit comes with a #Bistro area, equipped with vending machines for snacks and drinks and a few tables, creating a sort of @diningcar.at atmosphere.

Spent a few lovely days at the Matterhorn Symposium in Brig 🇨🇭, where I presented joint work with @mkasper.bsky.social and others on biased institutions. Next stop: Kassel for #DPPD25 and a talk on our new scale for HEXACO personality states.
