The second ABeh 162 of the Zentralbahn.

This ABeh 162 022 was standing around at Horw station. In August there were several articles documenting how the "FINK 1", the first FINK (ABeh 160/161/162) with the number 021 was delivered to Meiringen and is now being tested till december, from there on being used on the engelberg line.

Well, now there are a confirmed 2 of them in testing! Yippie!

Very noticeable is the new livery. This makes them the first FINK to be clearly distinguishable from the other two series.

ABeh 161: Orange outside display

Greetings from the total closure xD

The total closure of the Zentralbahn between Stansstad and Engelberg has been in effect since the 7th of September.

I decided to visit Dallenwil in order to document what's been going on here, this is what it looks like here.

The buses are absolutely stuffed full, very fun indeed

A rare combo it seems, the (old) Swiss as well as the (new) Irish passport.

Haven't really seen this combo before so here it is. On one hand the newly designed Irish passport which has been issued since the end of June, on the other the old Swiss passport (Pass 10), which has been replaced with the Pass 22 in 2022.

Warning: Do NOT go on Askgaybros

Mod here. I have already seen two posts about this specific subreddit with the same post shown and the response it was given so we have decided to make this post.

To anyone that doesn't know yet, Askgaybros is a subreddit for asking """manly""" gay men for their opinions and all that. The description should already be a red flag and it very much is.

The subreddit is filled with an obnoxious amount of transphobia, specifically targeted towards anyone who does not fit the gender binary. Many of the members do not see trans women/men as women/men and you can guess how they would react to our fellow enby peeps. This is not tolerated on our subreddit. Trans women are women and trans men are men. They always have been and they always will be.

Many members over there consider the """TQIA+""" an "active threat" to gay rights which is an absolutely delusional thing to say. If anyone needs a reminder, genderqueer people actively fought for gay rights in the last century and the fact that someone has the audacity to deny this is genuinely pathetic. In the eyes of those who have attacked trans rights in the last few years, "LGB" people aren't better or so, we just are the next target. You's all know how the poem goes.

This also ignores the fact that they are actively dismissing any other identity, like people on the aroace spectrum or even intersex people, the latter being so ironic that I can't even describe it.

Any further posts about this subreddit will be removed as it can be insanely triggering.

Sorry for this rant but this is a message from the mod team: Do not interact with this subreddit as it is an absolute cesspool and many of our members aren't even welcome there.

And another reminder: EVERYONE IS WELCOME HERE! No matter what gender identity, romantic or sexual orientation you have, you are valid and welcome here :3 (as long as you are a teen of course ahem ahem)

Kind regards
The mod team

I started the second 24h race and the dominance is genuinely diabolical...

So yea, it was only ever going to be the 787B.

I was expecting at least a bit of a challenge as with the first race, the A-Spec points this time were higher at 127, however after the first lap I already got a lead of more than 10 seconds. And there actually is a battle for second place as the Mazda and Sauber are battling like wild. Come to think of it, the opponents are all way closer this time.

But yea, 1.5 minutes ahead at the first pit stop on lap 7. Genuinely amazing, as my Mazda has no turbo whatsoever.

Welp, I did what Mercedes never was able to x)

405 laps and 24 hours of racing in Le Mans spanning 6 days IRL. Absolutely insane that I was able to pull this off. I had an 11-lap lead over the R89C in the end, so an absolute cakewalk of a race.

And in the last hour of the race, the GT-one actually seemed to go off-track more often than usual. Guess it really was the 1999 race.

u/Kasten10dvd — 3 months ago

First time I am driving a 24 hour race all in A-spec and I decided to somewhat recreate the actual 1999 race

(Apologies for the bad quality, had to take the pictures with my phone as the console is connected to the TV)

As the title says, I am currently doing the first of the two 24h races at Le Mans and I decided to go through with the torture and do it all in A-Spec. Part of my 100% run.

Yep, I decided to give the CLK-GTR some well-deserved respect by racing it here, symbolically imitating the 1999 race, even though it isn't a CLR. Got both the V12 LMR and the GT-One as opponents. And of course I did it because the CLK really isn't an LMP car and I wanted to have somewhat of a challenge, the CLK is down on downforce after all.

Now I am currently on the 14th hour and despite the fact that my car is absolutely outclassed, I have been dominating to a diabolical degree with me having lapped the R89C 5 times so far, not even mentioning the other opponents.

It is tiring, but it is so much fun. And yea, my dad has called me insane for trying to do this XD

Fun fact: Even though the car is labeled as a CLK GTR, it actually is a CLK LM.

Tango and Walzer of the AB :D

Was in Appenzell last weekend and decided to take the tram-train from St.Gallen to Appenzell, which was my first time riding that line. I sadly never ride the old section in the Ruckhalde T-T

And secondly I took the train from Appenzell direction Gossau. Can remember the old trains from when I was a kid :P

Yes, another Swissy post!
I have bascially been on this subreddit for 3 years now and holy hell ,these three years have gone by like nothing! two thirds of my time here are already gone and this has been without a doubt the best community I've ever been in.

Now don't worry, I won't be gone just yet, but I wanted to say thanks to all the friends I've made, to all the amazing people who have made a place that is far from perfect, but the best I've ever been in. A constantly wholesome and accepting community with so much positivity and cuteness that it's insane.
This was the place where I got to know my best friends as well as both of my partners.

Thanks everyone for these amazing 3 years so far. You all are the best.
Love, Swissy :3

Basically the title, been wondering what languages our members speak, including those that you are learning.

In my case, both German, high allemanic and English are my first languages. Been learning French in school and I've started to learn Irish as well :P
