Samedan
Two Rhaetian Railway Class G4/5 locomotives after arrival at Samedan, in the Swiss Engadine, with a double-headed special excursion from Chur over the Albula Line. These veteran locomotives, numbered 107 and 108 and dating from 1906, have been kept in working order by the RhB although long since retired from regular service. The photograph was taken in September 1971, and the locomotives can still be seen today on occasional steam specials 44732, albeit nowadays normally single-handed and over relatively short stretches of the Rhaetian system.
