Travel on railroads in Switzerland, including standard gauge railways of the Swiss Bundesbahn and narrow gauge mountain railroads such as the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn, the Rhaetian Railway (both part of the Glacier Express), Jungfrau railways and the Brunigbahn.

I traveled to Switzerland to see Europe's most beautiful scenery by smooth, efficient Swiss railroads. I took a trip to the Jungfrau, mostly by cog rail to 11,000 feet - Europe's highest and most scenic railroad station, built inside the mountain - a century ago. My itinerary comprised four nights in Interlaken, with day excursions on narrow-gauge mountain trains into the Alps. Then I went to Zermatt to catch the Glacier Express to St. Moritz.
