Remarks & Notes

Electric railcars ABe 4/4 # 47 and 46, built in 1965/1972 and not in regular passenger service anymore, are waiting at 8.30 PM with 3 panoramic cars on track 2 of Alp Grüm station on 2091 m a.s.l. under the full moon. The 90 passengers of the train are enjoying the famous "Glacier Fondue" (a hot swiss cheese speciality) in the station restaurant in this moment. The train will leave again at 10.30 PM for the Engadin, a wonderful ride through the spectacular winter landscape over the Bernina pass under the full moon!

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 31,694
Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.

Nocturnal Nuances & Lights In The Night! (Between Sunset - Sunrise / Sundown - Sunup!) Album created by member Dana M.	Album Views: 445,269
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
