RhB Bernina units ABe 4/4 52 and 46 with four cars just formed a train to St. Moritz. Due to a landslide the line south of Poschiavo is currently closed and the rolling stock still in Tirano was moved out by road, the line will probably be reopened in april 2009, which requires extensive work to secure the rockface north of the Brusio spiral viaduct.
