Correction: 20-35 367 is not ex SBB but ex Martigny Orsieres B 42. It is an EW I

Last time I went through Mendrisio, I was saddened to see the apparent state of some of the rolling stock that was then sitting to the side of the Gotthard line. The ex-SOB/RM BDe 4/4 among others.

Will the new location in Biasca be sheltered or will it be the same trackage that was previously used by SBB to store locomotives and rolling stock?

... and one of only three non-modernized EW I in Switzerland, built
1963. The other two are owned by DSF and are

20-35 366 ex TPF ex MO B 41 (1962)
20-35 362 ex TPF B 362 (1963)
