At the origin of the Rhine - a photo on Flickriver

            EN: The Rhine as we know it in Europe has its origin in Reichenau. Here the Vorderrein and Hinterrein flow together and from here form the "Rhine".

The passengers of the GlacierExpress 907 will probably not be interested in this fact. In anticipation of the trip across the Alps, they are probably enjoying their digestive after lunch on the train.

On this day, the slowest express train in the world is pulled by the Ge 4/4 II 623, which is painted in the right color.

DE: Der Rhein wie man ihn in Europa kennt nimmt in Reichenau seinen Ursprung. Hier fliessen Vorder- und Hinterrein zusammen und bilden ab hier den "Rhein".

Die Passagiere des GlacierExpress 907 dürfte dieser Fact hier wahrscheinlich wenig interessieren. In Vorfreude auf die Fahrt quer durch die Alpen geniessen sie wohl gerade ihren Digestiv nach dem Mittagessen im Zug.

Gezogen wird an diesem Tag der langsamste Schnellzug der Welt die in der richtigen Bemalung gehaltenen Ge 4/4 II 623.
