Yes Alan. It was being propelled "wrong road" (if there is such a term in Switzerland:)) by 18437.

Thanks John, I have only ever had fleeting glimpses of Bm4/4's in sidings whilst rushing along the Rhone Valley. :)

Thanks to Alan (andersley) I too have just seen this post. Very interesting thanks John (swisstrains)

During my last trip to Switzerland a preserved SBB C5/6 2-10-0 (known locally as "elephants") disgraced itself by causing a number of lineside fires and had to be assisted by an Re4/4 electric loco. It wasn't the picture I was hoping to get:(

In this next picture the Fire-Fighting train is on it's way to deal with the fires started by the steam loco.

Interesting photo's I love the fire train, it looks quite effective. Do you have any photo's of it in action?

No, sorry Phil but I have found these photos on the net of the SBB Zürich Fire Train attending a lineside fire.

Thank you for providing the link to these really interesting photos of a great looking and functional kit! I love the machine, it is well up to date.
Appreciate the response thank you.
