Remarks & Notes 
Loooking a bit like a "crocodile", this is a one frame bogie cogwheel locomotive of the Matterhorn-Gotthard-Bahn (MGB), standing in Oberwald together with a tank car with water for fire fighting if needed. The HGe 4/4 I # 15 was built in 1930 by SLM, MFO and SWS for the Brig-Visp-Zermatt Bahn (BVZ) and is now used for nostalgic trains like the Alpine Classic Pullmann Express (ACPE) or service trains like this one.
