On August 10, a northbound freight train derailed in the 57-kilometer-long Gotthard Base Tunnel, and since then both tubes have been closed. All passenger traffic, as well as freight traffic that can pass through the smaller profile, travels via the Gotthard mountain route, today also called the panorama route. Re 620 # 088 "Linthal" in the X-rail paint scheme and Re 620 # 013 "Rapperswil" of the SBB in multiple control are running through Wassen station on the Gotthard north ramp with loaded excavation train 69730 from Chiasso to Biel Produktionsanlage Ost (former shunting yard). The load was about 1200 gross ton used ballast.
