Glorious Gurtnellen
The late afternoon view of a southbound train leaving Gurtnellen must be the best on the Gotthard, with the village nestling in the Reuss Valley behind and the background dominated by the 2986m peak of Chli Windgällen.11338 and 11663 headed for the summit in glorious light on the afternoon of 13 August 2016. Almost invisible at the back, 11163 provided banking assistance. 11663 is one of the last few locos to carry the original green livery and made several appearances on the Gotthard during my week there.
