After flying into Zürich on the early Swiss flight from Heathrow and collecting my hire car, I headed for the RhB, arriving at my first location, overlooking the Disentis line in the Rhein Gorge west of Trin, shortly after 11:00. After a number of shots, including 607 on freight 5232, 703 on freight 5236 and 603 on freight 5237, I moved on to a location the other side of Trin for another Ge6/6ii on freight 5243 and 603 again on freight 5244. All the passenger trains seen were hauled by class Ge4/4ii locos except for Glacier Express 904 with 646.

In mid afternoon I moved on to Bonaduz on the Albula line for the remainder of the day. Most trains ran as expected but freight 5152 had me confused for a while after it turned up behind 702 with 604 coupled behind but not powering. Then I learned from a German photographer that the Landquart - Davos line was closed between Fideris and Küblis due to a derailed crane. The train was in fact 5152 combined with 5336 from Zernez to Landquart diverted to run via Samedan and the Albula due to its usual route being closed. Another surprise was 704 turning up on a late running Bernina Express 950.

The weather was sunny and gloriously clear until just after 950 should have passed but cloud drifted in from the west before it actually arrived. All in all, a very good day with two new locations covered and a third done in much better light than on my only previous visit.
