Erstfeld is situated on the Gotthard route, which opened in 1882.
This is one of the most important transit routes between North
and South Europe. The line climbs from Erstfeld at a gradient
of 2,6%. Many trains receive an extra locomotive at the rear or
locos are exchanged for more powerful combinations.
This film focusses on a compilation of scenes covering a great
variety of trains, filmed between November 1998 and December
2002.

In November 1998, many different loco types are witnessed
assisting trains to ascend the climb to Göschenen.
We also include shots of the early SBB Cargo livery as originally
applied to a few Re 6/6's. We filmed them in March 2000.
On a sunny day in August 2000, we watched Transport Inter-
Modal containers being loaded. Lots of traffic including a “light”
engine movement, consisting of 6 SBB locos and a BLS 465 were
recorded.
In December 2001 the sub zero temperatures were accompanied
by snow whilst we filmed a variety of trains in the daytime and
evening, including a "Grey Mouse" unit.
December 2002 brings us upto date with the latest Re 482 SBB
Cargo locos parading around the yard. We also include move-
ments of Re 6/6 locos in the latest SBB Cargo liveries at the
southern end of the depot.

This film captures the operating practices of a multi user fleet
of Re 6/6's and Re 460's locomotives, prior to the allocation of
specific locos to the SBB Cargo and Passenger divisions.

Recordings were made with both analogue (Hi-8) and digital
cameras. We only use original sound recordings without any
additional music or commentary.
Some maps are included to indicate camera locations.

Running time: 87 minutes.
