Swiss Railways

Video Description:
Views of the Standard and Metre gauge railways of Switzerland.
Firstly, some frieght trains near Gotthard, famous for its pass, and very, very long tunnel. Secondly, a look at the lake and the Paddle Steamer 'Lotschberg', as well as some metre gauge traffic, at Brienz. Brienz, as many will know, is the bottom terminus of the Brienz and Rothorn Steam Rack Rai
lway. A possible thing to come? Thirdly, some more metre gauge traffic at Realp, at the foot of the Furka pass. The station only serves a population of around 160, but is used for car transport trains, to carry travellers along the rail route, rather than negotiating the Furka pass itself, like we
did. (In low thick cloud may I add!)

| Having just returned from 2 weeks on Swiss rails this brings back great memories, especially Brienz, the gate way to the stunning Swiss outdoor museum. Thanks Dan |

| Looks a bit windy. those boats were being tossed about a bit. I do like the gentle tonkling of cow bells at the end. |
