Service stop on the line Iselle - Domodossola - Iselle
Due to works in a tunnel on the Italian side of the Simplon line, transportation service will be interrupted on the route between Iselle di Trasquera and Domodossola from Monday 22 July to Sunday 1 September 2013 respectively from Sunday to Friday 10:15 to 16:15. All trains travelling back and forth from Iselle to Domodossola will be replaced by suttle buses. The bus ride will take 30 minutes longer than the usual train route. “We recommend our customers to plan their travels outside the working time window”, so Claudia Wipf, Product Manager Long-distance Traffic. According to Mrs. Wipf, sundays to Fridays are best for travel before 10:15 or after 16:15 on this line. Car trains between Brig and Iselle are not affected by the interruption and run regularly.
