I’ll surely keep checking the timetable to see if any changes are reflected.
I tried attaching the file here but it says it can’t attach a file bigger than 1 MB

Perhaps attached is the timetable you were looking at? It suggests replacement bus from 10/12/2017 to 14/10/2018 which can’t possibly be correct. The SBB timetable rules!

What that actually says is this:
For services notated with the number 10 inside a black square:
- The train service runs between 10 December 2017 and 14 October 2018.
- From 15 October 2018 there is a bus replacement service between Interlaken Ost and Brienz.
That bus replacement service will continue at least until the end of the current timetable period, which ends on 8 December 2018. I think they are already working on that section of track (renovating a tunnel), but until 15 October, the bus services are only replacing train services after 21:30 on Sunday-Thursday nights.

Thanks for coming to the rescue AR, again.

Yes, the devil is definitely in the detail of those timetable notations. But you were right in the end – if in doubt, trust the SBB timetable!
