Chur

Morning mist was clearing above Chur station as RhB G4/5 2-8-0 number 107 prepared to leave with a special steam excursion to Samedan in the autumn of 1971. The train ran single-headed as far as Thusis, where sister locomotive number 108 was attached as pilot (see image [85930]) for the steeply graded run over the spectacular Albula line. Alongside is Class Ge4/4 1 electric 606 'Kesch', still at that time in its original green livery.
