Every trip is a special occasion to experience a journey in an atmosphere of yesteryear aboard a historic train composed of the 1963 ABDe 6/6 electric train and an AB4 wagons from 1923.
A plunge into the past on the route between Locarno and Camedo.
A unique travel experience born from the partnership between our railway and SEFT (Società Esercizio Ferroviario Turistico).
On the occasion of the historic train, the Camedo train depot is open to the public to offer a tasteful break thanks to the collaboration with the Osteria Grütli.
A charming space furnished in the name of sustainability and embellished by a mural of over 30 square metres created by the Centovallina artist Tamara Giovannacci.
