Kandersteg is known by most people for the car transporter
shuttle to Goppenstein. It is also a popular holiday destination
in both summer and winter. Kandersteg lies on the Bern-
Lötschberg-Simplon (BLS) line, which connects Wallis and Italy
to Central Switzerland.

In February 2005, we visited the station after fresh snowfall
and clear blue winter skies. Snow clearing takes place as we
watch different trains pass through this beautiful setting.

The passenger trains consist of EW IV push-pull consists
powered by SBB Re 460s and Euro-City’s trains of Belgian and
“Cisalpino” coaching stock, also hauled by Re 460s.

Freight trains are hauled by the BLS or SBB. The connection
to Italy and the different loco types guarantee a variety of
trains. Helper locos are uncoupled on platform 1. The overhead
wire “snaps”, and we get a demonstration of how to fix this
without delaying the traffic.

We end this film with evening scenes during heavy snowfall.

We only use original sound recordings, without any addi-
tional music or commentary.

Running time 58 minutes.
