| Remarks & Notes |
| The engineer of HG 2/3 7 "Breithorn" is greeting his collegue in the postal car with the steam whistle when they are meeting below Gletsch. Light fuel oil fired HG 2/3 7 was former Visp-Zermatt (VZ), then Brig-Visp-Zermatt (BVZ) and now Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB), but loaned to and operated by Dampfbahn Furka Bergstrecke (DFB) since last year. The train from Oberwald to Gletsch is on the 11.0 % grade with cog wheel just above Gletsch spiral tunnel. |
