Built in 1896 for use on the Gotthard line and in service for 80 years, the snow blower has been in the Verkehrshaus in Luzern for the last 40 years. Recently, however, it's been stored at Arth Goldau while the museum is refurbished. 

 

On 17th January, it was hauled from Arth Goldau to Brugg by 2-6-2T Eb 3/5 no. 5819, 125 years to the day after it entered service. 

 

 

The plan was to hopefully restore it in time for the annual open day in Brugg in June. I think it's fair to say, they beat their target!
