#Zurich🇨🇭to #Milan 🇮🇹 with an #SBB #RABe501 #Stadler #Giruno unit, the first of the series for that matter: 501.001, #Ticino, the canton in southern #Switzerland. We pass the #Gotthard base tunnel at 230 kph, according to the “on-board entertainment system”, i.e. the info screen.

Yesterday, on our way south and in order to avoid the congestion on the Swiss🇨🇭Motorway A2, we took the old #Gotthard pass road. We stopped at #Wassen, right in time for a photo of an #SBB #RABe501 #Giruno trainset, passing here pending the (full) re-opening of the base tunnel.
