I do hope this video entertains and evokes old fond memories of the European Railway Scene of the era.
On route to Hungary I stopped off at the busy location of Olten, midway between Basel and Zurich in Switzerland. Variants of traction representing the 3 main companies of the Swiss Federal Railways. SBB Schweizerische Bundesbahnen CFF Chemins de fer fédéraux suisses and FFS Ferrovie federali svizzere . The station proved very busy with both freight traffic and passenger with Re4/4, Ae 6/6,Re6/6, Ea3/3 and Re460 class types. Some of the locomotives looked pretty aged, but as typical of the country worked clockwork fashion with precision.
