Weatherwise a very similar day to Monday but with one important difference, I got a shot in one of the few sunny breaks and it was of a Ge4/4i at a location I really wanted. One sunny shot in three days is nothing to write home about but at least it was a shot worth having.
Like Monday, the day started with a trip to the Engadin where 605 was seen leaving Samedan for Preda with the Schlittelzug. Up at Pontresina the morning freight was a disappointment. 703 had only two wagons in tow and it passed in poor light. The walk down to Samedan was a lot easier than the previous day’s walk in the opposite direction and 608 was subsequently bagged leaving town with RE1125 in good light.
With 602 replaced on the Engadin push-pulls by the hideous 611, I set off in search of something worth photting. It was dull and snowing heavily around Preda and Bergün so no point in trying some shots of 605 on the Schlittelzüge. On to the Davos - Klosters line where 609 and 610 were working the Sportzüge and where it was snowing heavily and most of the route was in low cloud. Again no point in stopping. On through the Vereina tunnel to Sagliains, where it was bright and didn’t look like it had snowed for weeks. Unfortunately there was nothing worth photting there so it was back up the valley to Pontresina to try the afternoon freight. When I arrived it was sunny and snowing gently. Just over ten minutes later 704 left, again with a miserable two wagons, in gloomy light and with a blizzard raging.
You can’t win them all but it’s nice to win one for a change.
