The main line runs from Berne, the Swiss capital, through Spiez, and the Lötschberg tunnel to Brig, where it connects with the Federal Railways to enter the Simplon tunnel to Italy which it enters at Iselle di Trasquera. The line forms part of the Berne to Milan main line which the company operates in a joint operation with the Federal Railways. The company also operates extensive commuter services to and from Berne. In 1994 the BLS moved 9.2 million passengers.
The BLS network comprises 248 km of standard gauge track, all electrified at 15kV 16.7Hz.
