An #SBB🇨🇭#RABe501 #Giruno unit at #Basel SBB earlier today. These 250 kph #Stadler #SMILE high speed trainsets were primarily built for services passing through the #Gotthard base tunnel, yet they also seem to do more modest workings, like this #InterRegio for #Zurich. (#WESTbahn are you watching?)🤓

Next stop: the #elvetino @diningcar of an #SBB🇨🇭#RABe501 #Stadler 230 kph #Giruno trainset on this #Lugano to #Zurich #InterCity. On the table: one of the Swiss train restaurant classics: minced meat with macaroni, Sbrinz cheese and apple sauce, plus a glass of Swiss Red 🍷.

#Zurich🇨🇭to #Milan 🇮🇹 with an #SBB #RABe501 #Stadler #Giruno unit, the first of the series for that matter: 501.001, #Ticino, the canton in southern #Switzerland. We pass the #Gotthard base tunnel at 230 kph, according to the “on-board entertainment system”, i.e. the info screen.

Yesterday, on our way south and in order to avoid the congestion on the Swiss🇨🇭Motorway A2, we took the old #Gotthard pass road. We stopped at #Wassen, right in time for a photo of an #SBB #RABe501 #Giruno trainset, passing here pending the (full) re-opening of the base tunnel.

@sbamueller Ab September fährt hier dann hoffentlich der #Giruno mit ebenerdigem Einstieg. #RABe501

With an #SBB🇨🇭#InterCity southwards. #Breakfast in the @elvetino @diningcar. The restaurants on board #SBB’s class #RABe501 #Giruno trainsets are displaying the colours of #Swiss cantons or municipalities - replicas of the coat of arms decorating the former Ae6/6 Gotthard locos.
