BLS AG
BLS AG is a Swiss railway company created by the 2006 merger of BLS Lötschbergbahn and Regionalverkehr Mittelland AG. It is 55.8% owned by the Canton of Berne, and 21.7% by the Swiss Confederation. It has two main business fields: passenger traffic and infrastructure.
BLS has a subsidiary BLS Cargo which is responsible for all freight operations. BLS Cargo works in cooperation with the freight subsidiary of Deutsche Bahn, Railion. However, the staff, apart from management and sale, is employed by BLS AG. Part of the BLS locomotive fleet is owned by BLS Cargo.
Infrastructure
In 2007 the new, 34.6 km long, Lötschberg base tunnel opened, which is part of the 449 km of infrastructure owned and operated by BLS AG. For details of the network see the map at right. The Lötschberg base tunnel was built by a wholly owned subsidiary BLS AlpTransit AG. By mid-2007 this company handed over the base tunnel to BLS AG. In 2009 this company was renamed BLS Netz AG and the whole BLS infrastructure passed over to this company which is mainly owned by the Swiss Confederation, which has paid for most of the recent investments.

Place To Go
by: MaxeenAll we need is a place to go
And step by step we can take it slow
I keep having dreams of you
There’s nothing i can do
We just keep laughing and loving
And I think to myself … I’ll never wake up again
I can’t help but feel this way
gets stronger everyday
I hold your hips to the tango
Then I wake up scream’n … Where is my lover again?
All we need is a place to go
Step by step we can take it slow
I never meant to treat you bad
Honey I felt so sad
Like a black hole was sucking love from my body baby
I was nobody’s friend
Now that I’ve been feeling good
My dreams suggest we should
But I know you and you’d probably knee me in the cut
And this bloody silence would end
All we need is a place to go
Step by step we can take it slow
All I need is for you to see
I feel for you do you feel for me?
And every single night that I see your face
It makes me think of times when you and me were good
Loving each other like we should
All we need is a place to go
Step by step we can take it slow
All I need is for you see
I feel for you do you feel for me?
All we need is a place to go
