Ae 8/14 in Erstfeld Enginehouse
Title:  Ae 8/14 in Erstfeld Enginehouse
Description:  No. 11801's 16 drivers deliver a one hour horsepower rating of 11,100. The locomotive uses a Bucholi drive which employs a gear ouside the driver on one end of each driving axle. The locomotive was built in 1931 to reduce doubleheading on the Gotthard Tunnel route - from Erstfeld to the entrance of the Gotthard Tunnel is a climb of 2,080 feet in 18 miles. The tunnel is under more than 6,000 feet of solid rock. At 9 miles it is not the longest Swiss tunnel but it is the oldest major tunnel - opened 1/1/1882. The locomotive was operated on a regular revenue freight schedule at this date for the enjoyment of enthusiasts.

11,100 Horsepower Swiss Ae8/14 on Freight
Title:  11,100 Horsepower Swiss Ae8/14 on Freight
Description:  Only 3 locomotives of this wheel arrangement (2-4-2-4-2+2-4-2-4-2) were built - one each in 1931, 1932 and 1940. The design was intended to reduce double heading on the 2.75% grades climbed by Gotthard Tunnel freight and passenger trains but it was found more practical to build smaller units which could be MU'd. No.11801 had a one hour horsepower output of 11,100. It is pulling a freight on the Gotttard Tunnel Route.

Swiss Federal Be 4/6
Title:  Swiss Federal Be 4/6
Description:  Be 4/6 12303-12342 were built from 1920 to 1923. This is one of the locomotives used to electrify the Gotthard Tunnel route in 1922 after a coal shortage during the First World War made the Swiss turn away from steam locomotives. No. 12320 had a maximum speed of only about 50 mph and only an output of 2,200 hp but was a considerable improvement over the steam 4-6-0s, 2-8-0s and 2-10-0s. Jack-shafts are used to drive two four driver sets. The locomotive was withdrawn from ordinary service in 1976 but was still in scheduled use for the enjoyment of enthusiasts.
