Metre-gauge Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn Rack-fitted Electric Loco Class HGe 4/4 II No. 103 'CHUR/MARCAU DE CUERA' travels up the Mattertal Valley as it approaches the Matterhorn Terminal, Tasch, working a mixed freight train to Zermatt on 27th June 2014. The freight service between Visp and Zermatt is intensive and operates exclusively for the supply of the vast majority of all types of goods (particularly foodstuffs, building materials and heating oil) to Zermatt, which can be served by trucks only to a very limited extent.
