REOS 034En: Specials on the Gotthard

DVDR £ 11,75  € 18,00   

Since 1994, we have visited the Gotthard railway line and made film recordings. In this film, many special recordings have been brought together, especially from 1997, when the Swiss railways celebrated their 150th anniversary and we were on hand to film some rare and special footage. In Erstfeld station you will see the changing of historic electric locos, including the famous "Crocodile". The historic Gotthard-Expresses were recorded passing the spirals of Wassen, hauled by historic electric locos or steam engines, all double or even triple headed. Beside the historic trains, there is a great variety of modern trains in different liveries and unexpected combinations.
