Transport development on the Lötschberg axis
In the last 12 years, freight transport on the Lötschberg axis (mountain and base routes) has more than trebled. Since the inauguration of the Lötschberg base route in 2007, the heavier freight trains have largely been run on the base route, and the majority of the lighter ones on the mountain route.
