The railroad line from Andermatt UR over the Oberalp Pass to Diesentis GR, which has been interrupted since Monday, will be open again from Saturday. As the Matterhorn Gotthard Railway announced on Friday, trains will be running according to schedule from the start of operations.
After heavy snowfall, a Matterhhorn Gotthard Bahn train got stuck in a switch in Tschamut GR on Monday. As a result, no more trains were able to run between the top of the pass and Dieni GR.
The railroad company justified the long line interruption by stating that the recovery of the three-part composition and the repair of the points were time-consuming.
