|
The four SLM Winterthur 1890 Steam locos HG2/3 1~4 with adhesion and cog drive wheel formed the first locos of Visp-Zermatt-Bahn. In 1893, 1902, 1906 and 1908 followed four more machines, and, from lok 6, in brighter livery. When the track was electrified in 1929 the first five locos were broken up; lok 8 survived until 1935. |
HG2/3 7 "Breithorn" survived until finally it was the only engine with a rack drive with Visp-Zermatt-Bahn (VZ). |
| Recently HG2/3 7 "Breithorn" was converted to oil firing. |
Today both DFB HG2/3 6 "Weisshorn" and MGB(BVZ) HG2/3 7 "Breithorn" carry the green/black livery of VZ. |
Metal handcrafted model of rack Loco HG2/3 7 in present green/black livery. |
