Note: Another very famous Gotthard locomotive beside the Crocodile. This one here is revisioned and in the new cargo finishing so she will probably do duty for some other years (till 2016). With the revision the emblems of her babtismal name Burgdorf are fixed behind the drivers window, back in days it was in the middel of the trains and mounted with normal screws, so sadly some got lost, because they were stolen by "real railfans". Later they were all removed and given to the sbb historic institution.
