Remarks & Notes 
All 3 operational historic Gotthard locomotives of Erstfeld Depot were coupled together to pull a train up the Gotthard north ramp today, something that was never done in earlier days. Ae 8/14 11801 from 1931, "Crocodile" Ce 6/8 II 14253 from 1919 and Ae 6/6 11402 "Uri" from 1952 are pulling 5 "Leichtstahlwagen" (light cars built in steel) including a diner from Airolo back to Erstfeld and are crossing 127 meter long Chärstelenbach bridge in Amsteg.

The classic and classy electric "Crocodiles" of the Swiss SBB-CFF. They are the real ones that deserve the Crocodile nickname – Krokodil in German.
