Remarks & Notes |
For the 150th anniversary (1873 to 2023), the meter gauge Lausanne-Echallens-Bercher Railway invited as guest locomotive the G 3/3 # 5 of the Blonay Chamby Museum Railway. Together with the two own passenger cars C # 12 (built 1914) and C # 10 (built 1908) a nice train could be formed, which ran three times between Echallens and Bercher on both days of the weekend September 30th/October 1st. The first train can be seen in full speed between Sugnens and Fey. The steamlocomotive was built in 1890 by the Alsatian Mechanical Engineering Company (EMBG) in Grafenstaden for the Lausanne-Echallens-Bercher Railway (LEB) and is owned by the Blonay-Chamby Railroad Museum since 1973, operational since 1985. |
