À #Locarno, le Léopard d’or est attribué à #CriticalZone de l’Iranien #AliAhmadzadeh. Le réalisateur de 37 ans, qui a tourné son film dans la clandestinité, n’a pu se rendre à Locarno et recevoir son prix en personne. https://www.lemonde.fr/culture/article/2023/08/12/a-locarno-le-leopard-d-or-est-attribue-a-critical-zone-de-l-iranien-ali-ahmadzadeh_6185263_3246.html

A #Locarno, le #Léopard d’or est attribué à « #CriticalZone », de l’Iranien #AliAhmadzadeh https://www.lemonde.fr/culture/article/2023/08/12/a-locarno-le-leopard-d-or-est-attribue-a-critical-zone-de-l-iranien-ali-ahmadzadeh_6185263_3246.html

#Locarno J’irai un jour. Pas cette année, mais j’irai. Cette année, ça sera #Gindou, et ça sera bien.

Lovely #Re 🇮🇹 station on the #Vigezzina line earlier today. A catering trolley ☕️ 🍻🍷will be loaded here onto the mid-day “diretto” from #Locarno🇨🇭 to #Domodossola 🇮🇹, composed of a pair of #SSIF ABe4/6 units.

“Meet” on the #Vigezzina 🇮🇹 narrow-gauge railway line earlier today: #SSIF units ABe8/8 “Ossola” (built 1959) and ABe6/6 “Piemonte” (from 1968) pass each other at Orcesco-Gagnone station, working the last #Locarno to #Domodossola through service of the day and a local to #Re respectively.

Several through trains between #Domodossola 🇮🇹 and #Locarno🇨🇭 on the 100 year old #Vigezzina #Centovalli narrow-gauge line are currently being worked by lovely #SSIF class ABe8/8 units from the late 1950s. This is due to equipment shortages: the “Panoramic“ units aren’t operating right now because of some technical issues.

In #Piemonte’s Valle Vigezzo for a few days (of hiking basically). Since there is also a railway line (🤓), a visit to S. Maria Maggiore train station is almost compulsory. This is the highest point on the narrow gauge #Vigezzina #Centovalli line from #Domodossola 🇮🇹 to #Locarno🇨🇭. And there is a nice station café right by the platform edge with photos of the early years of this railway line on display.

On the #SSIF 🇮🇹 Valle Vigezzo narrow gauge line earlier today, at (and around) S. Maria Maggiore (📷 1,2,3) and Masera (4). Pictured is the 08:48 morning service from #Locarno to #Domodossola, worked by the ABe8/8 unit #21 “Roma” (plus a plinthed tramcar).

#Intragna🇨🇭 on the narrow gauge #Centovalli railway line earlier today. This is the terminus station for this lunchtime regional service from #Locarno.

@SiliconJets
Can one suggest the #Eurostar and #TGV #train ? :)
10 hours in total for #London to #Bellinzona or #Locarno via #Paris and #Zurich it's true.
But that's ...2 kg #CO2 according to https://ecotree.green/en/calculate-train-co2#result

(ok, maybe a little more if #jeffbezos insists on taking a cab rather than the #RER #underground direct train from #GareDuNord to #GareDeLyon)

Colourful #Re station on the #Vigezzina 🇮🇹 #Centovalli🇨🇭narrow gauge line earlier today. The train on the pictures is a #Domodossola to #Locarno “diretto” service.

Serving suggestion. Having a #gelato in #Locarno while waiting for my next train, on the narrow gauge line to Domodossola. It is quite summery conditions here, unlike when we were here with the spouse in May. Back then we only traveled as far as Camedo as she used a Ticino Ticket from our hotel, only valid inside Ticino. #Interrail

The evening service on the #Locarno🇨🇭 to #Domodossola 🇮🇹 narrow gauge #Centovalli #Vigezzina line is usually worked by a lovely 1950s unit. Tonight #SSIF ABe8/8 #21 “Roma” is doing the honours. It comes with opening windows, obviously a mixed bag on a rainy day like today. 😉

Morning at S. Maria Maggiore 🇮🇹, the highest point on the #Vigezzina #Centovalli narrow gauge line. The first eastbound services of the day from #Domodossola - a local to #Re and the international to #Locarno🇨🇭- are worked by units built in the 1950s and the 1960s. ❤️
