Gotthard Base Tunnel

The north portals of the new Gotthard Base Tunnel, seen from the observation car of a northbound Wilhelm Tell Express from Locarno to Lucerne that had just traversed the old mountain route in June 2016. With the full opening of the tunnel to scheduled services in December 2016 the only trains using the old route will be scenic excursions and local EMUs.
