The steam train into the retirement of a engineer of the association Steam Group Zürich (Verein Dampfgruppe Zürich) reached Rapperswil in the blue hour. The engineer made his last run over the Gotthard line with the highspeed tilting train ETR 610. In Zürich main station, his colleagues waited with this steam train with 2-6-0 B 3/4 # 1367, CIWL diner # 2749 and a first class car, and he had the pleasure, to drive this train via Thalwil-Pfäffikon SZ to Rapperswil, together with his family and friends.
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!)
