Mike,

?

1920 or 1980?? (You¡¯re not that old.? J? )

?

Unless it¡¯s just the lighting,? I don¡¯t see the usual buffers on the front of this engine.

Thank you.? 1980, of course.? I have no idea why I typed 1920.

It is meter gauge, so that accounts for the center coupler and no buffers.? ?The FO has a branch down to Goschenen from its mainline that went over the Gotthard Tunnel.? Goschenen is at the north portal of the Gotthard Tunnel, the old one that still sees some traffic as the base tunnel now has most trains.? ?In 1980, of course, all traffic went through the old tunnel.

I'm glad someone reads my posts!
