Thun is the collection point for the regional freight traffic in the Bernese Highlands, making it an interesting place to train spot. It was especially interesting before 2013, when an Ae 6/6 (1952) was assigned to serve the area between Frutigen, Interlaken and Thun. I have a video entitled "A day with Ae 6/6 11426" where I followed it everywhere it went for those who are interested. At the end of 2013, Ae 6/6s were completely withdrawn from service.
At this time, the main shunters in Thun were Bm 4/4s, many of which have also since been retired.
Interesting here is the area behind the station, where the dock is for ships to and from the lake of Thun. There is also a dock for ships that transport gravel from where the river Kander enters the lake of Thun to this point. During the video you see a Bm 4/4 shunting with a number of the filled wagons. Hope you enjoy the video.
