Description:  Inauguration of SBB Cargo 923 024 at Ziegelbrücke. 30 units are distributed all over Switzerland to local shunting teams, which keep their locomotive all over the year locally. Therefore the team can name their "personal" loco with a name of mountain nearby. The team of Ziegelbrücke choosed the mountain "Fronalpstock".
