EN: This former transformer tower from 1913 stands at the Ausserberg station just south of the tracks.
There used to be many such towers along the Lötschberg line between Frutigen and Brig. Today, the tower in Ausserberg is the last surviving one, and it too is in a quite poor condition. The tin roof is rusted and in many windows the glass is missing.
