078 Olten Station - Bahnhof Olten - Many SBB and BLS freight and passenger trains!

In the summer of 2005, REOS visited Olten station. The
station is situated at the centre of five Swiss cities; Basel,
Zürich, Luzern, Bern and Solothurn. As a result, a unique
collection of trains can be seen passing through the station.
Local, regional and international passenger trains are
combined with local and international freights. All transit
freight of the Bern-Lötschberg-Simplon Bahn, BLS, passes
through Olten station. The SBB operated freights are mainly
in the hands of the Ae 6/6 locomotives.
We start at the east side of the yard, at the connecting
line between Basel and Zürich. Here we warm up with a
selection of mixed trains before we go to Olten station.
At the station we start at the east end of the platform,
looking towards Basel and Zürich. This is also the area
where the yard and maintenance facilities are located. We
change to the west side to watch trains departing and
arriving from the Luzern, Bern and Solothurn directions.
Finally we return to the east side again, to witness local and
international freights mixed with local and international
passenger trains.
REOS only uses original sound recordings without any
commentary or music.
