RD21649d[vid]. Rive Bleue Express, part 3.

            RD21649d[vid].   The video starts with the 'Rive-Bleue-Express' between the French resort of Évian-les-Bains and Le Bouveret in Switzerland.  However, the final clip was shot at Le Bouveret after the train had arrived and the loco, 0-6-0WT No.2 HANSLI, built by SLM in Winterthur in 1893, is seen running back to the depot.   

Unfortunately, the track on the French side became unsafe, so the popular cross-border tourist train had to be withdrawn.  1998 was the last year of operation, so I was extremely lucky to see it and get a few pictures and this short video.
