Although the forecast was similar to the previous day, the sun barely managed to break through the clouds at all. there were a few short breaks around midday but none coincided with a train and the best I got on anything was half sun. Once again I started south of Sevelen, moving to a spot just north of Sargans in the late morning and back to Sevelen in the early afternoon. When it became clear that the sun had gone for good, I walked to Buchs, checking out the photo possibilities along the way then caught a train back.
Trains ran pretty much as expected with Re4/4iis 11108, 11138, 11141, 11149 and 11303 covering the Chur - St. Gallen trains. The dishwasher conversions used on Sargans - Buchs locals were finally identified as class 526 after a thorough inspection of one at Sargans tonight. The number does appear on the unit, in light grey type on a dirty white background making it very difficult to read.
There was a fair variety of power on the freights seen, including a diminutive class 923 on three wagons, BLS “Brownie” 171 and green 11646, complete with original round lights as well as round wheels.
