This is a wonderful train to ride, panoramic windows, snack bar, etc. It starts at Montreux, Switzerland, from a connected platform at the main SBB station. If i remember rightly, tickets can be bought in advance at SBB stations, although this railway is a private one.
The entire train line set up beginning from Germany to Switzerland and mainline Europe is just like heaven to me. The panoramic view of tracks passing thru neighbourhood's, green fields mountains is something no one can match. I am a scale model train enthusiast and derive ideas from these kind of lovely videos. Many so called proud nations must learn what train actually means. Thank you for this wonderful video.
the video was filmed spontaneously just with the iPad I had with me - and not to hold it the whole way I leaned it against the window - unfortunately the angle just a little bit to low.
Don't worry at all about the angle! Still a lot to see for a rail enthusiast - as most of the rail infrastructure lays on the ground anyway ;) Ok, ok, it is a electrified line but the catenary looked good anyway :) For me the most exciting details were the old disconnected rails which were once connected to the main line and how you can observe the rails you are on from the outer side and then from the inner side...
Rides on the OBB and SBB are on my bucket list. don't know that I will ever make it there much less something as simple as a ride on Amtrak or VIA rail. But this place just went to the top of my list.
Excellent video of a fascinating, scenic train route. These tracks are unbelievably forever ascending up mountains with outstanding views of the countryside and neighboring villages with rolling hills and driveways, tightly nestled near the tracks. Nothing is wasted along the way, but am a little perplexed as to whether this is a train or tram. Further, the train or tram passed by a number of stations with passengers waiting. Why? it appears that it's the only train/tram. Nevertheless, the video is fantastic and appreciate it much. Thank you......
Valtrus - in absence of the poster of the clip - that question makes me think what exactly is a train and what a tram, but I've been on this train and the Golden Pass Line covers quite a distance between different towns and villages, and is not intended for local transport inside towns. (I admit, the lines are a bit blurred in Switzerland, where you have narrow-gauge trains that stop in front of the station instead of at the platforms inside and do street-running, like the train Chur-Arosa.) However, if you listen to the MOB on-board announcement, you can hear the Golden Pass line being called a train. The people waiting on the station are probably waiting for a local train that's following behind the Golden Pass Express, which is primarily aimed at tourists and will not stop everywhere, as you've noticed. Hats off to Silverdolby for sharing this video of a great journey.
The express is usually 4-6 coaches with a locomotive in the middle (the outer coaches are Driving/Observation cars with a front view for the passengers) locals are usually railcars
The simplest definition is --------- if the thing can stop anywhere on the route to let passengers alight , it's a tram.................if you can only alight at a fixed place onto a raised platform, it's a train. Now wait for the protest from the...................... Stavros Neopedestrienne
What an absolutely charming little railway with some wonderful views. I'm absolutely amazed at the lack of rack & pinion and also 'check' rails. Surely it doesn't run all the year with thick snow everywhere. I thought it was a very good video, if one is going to be fussy about every minor detail, then I would like to see that person make a better one.
Un vídeo muy bonito, pero es una pena que el autor no haya levantado más la cámara para poder disfrutar más del paisaje. A mi modo de ver se ha centrado demasiado en la vía y Suiza es un país de postal.
WoW.. which country is this ?? Switzerland !!.. nice to see Meter Gauge still active active.. In India MG is being converted to Broad Guage (apart from a couple of Heritage lines) to enable semi High Speed trains.. Nice Cab View.. feels like one is gliding !!!
A pretty scenic journey . Beautifully laid tack on traditional wooden sleepers. It would have added to the experience if the train could have glided to a stop at the station ; too sudden a termination!
In Switzerland italian is official language but is not important... Speake only in Ticino Region, South Grischun region and Gondo people in Valais region,near border Italy

This line is not very steep, it has a maximum grade of 7% however the Montreux-Rocher de naye line (400 to 2'000m) is a rackrailway (maximum incline : 22%)
Dealing so effectively with such formidable gradients without a rack system is more than a little impressive.
You've said it! It is by far steeper than the traditional 0,3% max

This is beautiful place in Montreaux, Swiss. The train passes through tunels in montains and litle Cities of Chamby, Sonzier, Veylaux etc
Amazing climb up some very steep track without the aid of the centre rack system - incredible!

It is important that all seats line up with windows. With many new trains in the UK, some seats provide no window view. What a design failure!
Hermoso paisaje , se respira tranquilidad. Dan ganas de mirarlo una y otra vez.
More than a railroad... it's a moving painting. Just beautiful.
C'est une très belle ligne de chemin de fer, une très bonne vidéo et qui invite à la visite. Merci beaucoup !
What a beautiful countryside and towns !

The angle doesn't matter. I can still enjoy that green and beautiful scenery 👍

It is a narrow gauge train.

Здорово.Все ухоженно.аккуратно!
Thanks for the memories.
Interesting place. Where was this filmed?
It's fantastic, no doubt, but WHERE IS IT?

Completamente de acuerdo.
Lugar é muito bonito!!
How does one cope with slippery leaves on the track?
superbe video .mais quelle est l'inclinaison de cette pente sans cremaillére ????

Vielen Dank für das wunderschöne Video.
The elevation looks crazy, is this train line in operation in all weather conditions?
Как же у них красиво!
L'état de Montreux! Belle route!
Bellissimo!
I am Brazilian. Is beautiful movie.
Where is this wonderful place? Its name, please?
beautiful video. thank you very much
Trop bien
Brilliant. Rising to 1000m at Avants with snow on the ground. Many thanks
How have they done this with out a rack?
That's a hell of a grade straight off the platform end at the beginning!
Wonderful scenes.
Favoloso! Video al 90%in galleria al buio totale....! Che cagata!
Visto tutto il video forse 10% in galleria
Beautiful
Great video my friend.....LIke & respect from Romania!!!
In some sections of this video,I picture myself riding a roller coaster on this track....at high speed!
Go into "settings" and change the speed of the video. You can really speed it up.
I have no idea what or where this is, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching it.
It starts in Montreux, near Lake of Geneva, French-speaking part of Switzerland., then climbs the Alps right behind it, direction Nort-east.
steve S Thank you for the reply. I tried to watch part 2 but the camera was too jumpy for me. Amazing that they built this, isn’t it?
@@rubyait we have dozens of train lines that climb mountains, it's very common in the alps !
Beautiful!!!...Wow!!!!!!
The service announcements @ 3:13 are in French, German and English, but not Italian. How curious.
In Switzerland italian is official
language but is not important... Speake only in Ticino Region, South Grischun region and Gondo people in Valais region,near border Italy
This route connects the French and German-speaking regions of Switzerland but does not run through or into the Italian-speaking region.
@@paolorosin9164 Southhampton = Süd-Graubünden. I did not know, that Gondo in Valais (Wallis) is italophone. Interessant.

Molto bello.!!
Epic images
So exciting exotic mother nature
Nice video! Thank you.
Wenn mann denkt,das es ohne Zahnstangen in diese Steigung geht,das war Pionierleistung im Bahnbau.
Great video! Where was the station you started from?
all the way looks like ghost town - ghost railway stations - where are the people?
lockdown, perhaps...
Is this narrow gauge? Like the double-slip near the start of the journey.
seems so...
Yes, 1000mm
Where is this?
Montreux, Switzerland
HEY
I would be happy to know which city was photographed and when?
How long is the whole trip?
Where 's this place?
Dunno why, but the thumbnail looks like a train drifting to me lol.
AHAHHAHA same , I've clicked here because of that
Very, very, very cool ... ☝️
