We join the Wengernalp Railway’s modern electric multiple unit train at Lauterbrunnen for the breathtakingly beautiful trip to Kleine Scheidegg, first climbing past pretty villages and wooded slopes before bursting out from the shade of the trees into bright sunlight as our climb continues, with amazing vistas of the snow covered mountains on one side and deep valleys on the other. Grab a coffee or tea, sit back and enjoy the ride.
Track gauge - 800 mm (2 ft 7 1⁄2 in)

The trains are able to run all year round, in winter they are the best way to reach the ski slopes.

This is one of your best cog railway videos to date. That train really hauls up the mountain at an incredible speed. The cog noise is pretty reasonable and very smooth. The scenery is typically Swiss elegance and beauty, not to forget the immaculate condition of the track and surroundings! 5 stars from me!

+Peter M Hi Peter, the WA (Wengernalp) railway differs from the other rack railways in that it is a real railway, as opposed to a tourist railway with freight and everyday passengers travelling between intermediate stations. In winter it becomes the means by which winter sports enthusiasts reach the ski slopes. The trains are substantial with a fair turn of speed, considering they are rack driven.
@fritz46
@fritz46 8 лет назад
Actually the railway goes on downhill from Kleine Scheidegg to Grindelwald, which is very unusual for a rack railway. Because the trains have an uphill and a downhill side, they can't go straight through Kleine Scheidegg, and passengers have to change trains. But trains can be turned around if necessary using the wye (rail triangle) that can be seen on the left side when entering the station (starting at 31:00). The wye is partly inside a tunnel.

+fg46 Hi, thanks for the extra information. I understand the trains always travel with the power car at the downhill end of the train, hence the 'Y' at Kleine Scheidegg.
@RTSRafnex2
@RTSRafnex2 3 года назад
​@@Timsvideochannel1 actually all newer trains of the WAB are twin units, so it is more about the bogies. Only the downhill axle of each bogie is driven.

I think this has got to be the best YT 'cab ride' upload I've seen. For two main reasons, this train journey is particularly dear to me, given that I undertook the journey in the summer of 1970, as a visiting boy scout. And because it is a stunning video presentation. (THUMBS UPPED/Subscribed). Switzerland is uberclean. It was then, it still looks it now. Such a stunning vista, as one climbs up the Lauterbraunnen valley, dominated by the Jungfrau, then a few tunnels, Wengen (Swiss Army Knives) and then the turn, Jungfrau-jock, further ascending the valley and then another turn east and the sun-lit, south western face of the magnificent Eiger swings into view. And that north face, forever in shade, standing like lone canine tooth. As one arrives at Kliene Scheideg, another rail can be seen to the right, moving off up the spine of hill towards the base of mighty Eiger. This I recall is the 'mountain rail' that takes climbers up to the 'Sphinx' restaurant that sits atop the Jungfrau-joch, between the Grand Jungrau and the forboding Eiger. The narrow gauge, gear--assisted, railway continues up at a steep incline and *through* the Eiger itself, whereby it finally terminates at the Jungfrau-Joch station, where steps take one up to the Sphinx observatory/restaurant. Anyone who has seen the 'Eiger Sanction' (Clint Eastwood - George Kennedy) will recognise the railway towards the end of the movie. A truly remarkable holiday for an eleven year old and an equally memorable video tribute. Many thanks!

@Timsvideochannel1 6 лет назад
Thank you, I'm really pleased you enjoyed it. Your memories of a trip made as an eleven year old are remarkably clear and I enjoyed reading your description of the journey. The first time I visited in 2005 many of the railways were closed due to severe flooding damaging many of the railways in the region, the roads were only passable because temporary bridges had been erected to replace those washed away by the swollen rivers.

The Swiss love to show their beautiful country to visitors. I travelled with a very interesting lady I met on a train near Geneva, she recounted the history and points of interest about the places we were passing through, when I was nearing journeys end I asked what she did for a living, she replied "I'm a tour Guide", naturally I asked where she went for her holidays, she said "I love skiing in Zermat". Your "98" trip sounds like a really nice way to spend a day, I must return in Winter to see everything cover with snow.

Excellent video. We did this route on 17 August 1996, but in the opposite direction. We had come up to Kleine Sheidegg from Grindelwald, then onto Jungfraujoch.

Hello Keith I hope you are keeping safe and well. I have witnessed first hand the volcanic activity that threw up these mountains followed by the glacial activity that has carved them into the beautiful landscape we see today. New Zealand is still evolving, I shot this video just months before White Island blew its top killing more than 20 people in the process - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XHtpzij0-qA.html Standing in a live volcano crater is an experience that is hard to describe, you can feel the vibration caused by the activity under the thin crust you are standing on, it is frightening and awesome at the same time. A few days earlier I was visiting Fox and Franz Josef Glaciers to see mother nature at work creating the deep valleys that future tourists will marvel at. The beautiful Swiss Alps were created many thousands of years earlier by the same natural forces I saw in New Zealand, even today glaciers are still carving deep valleys in the higher Swiss alpine regions. We live in an awesome world, I am so glad to have seen a few of the places I read about when I was younger.

I took this train ride in 1984. I'm happy that you follow your Bliss. This video is much better than I took; now with better equipment and your expertise I was able to relive a most memorable day. I viewed this in 2x speed while listening to the William Tell Overture on another tab, which morphed in "Ode to Joy". Thank you for sharing. And, I see you have other train videos which I will be happy to view, and a day in Agra, India which I also did in '71.

There are many times when I've wished today's cameras were available when I was younger, especially when I look at one of my old photos taken with a Kodak Instamatic camera of trains and railways that no longer exist. I'm glad you enjoyed re-living this trip, it also makes good sense to choose suitable music to accompany the video. I loved Agra, I would guess it hasn't changed much since 71.

@@Timsvideochannel1 As you said, wishing camera equipment today was available years ago reminded me of driving from NYC to LA in 1969. As we were driving through Monument Valley the sunset and the mesas looked spectacular, but all I had was a Brownie camera with B/W film! However, where we stopped in the middle of the desert I took a couple of shots anyway. As I was getting back in the car I happened to look down and discovered in the dust at my feet a Golden Eagle pass to the Nat'l. Parks valid that year! So, we stopped at Mesa Verde and the Grand Canyon!

@@rhyacinthlevrini6577 Not only did cameras give indifferent results, it cost a small fortune to get the film developed. I'd love to slip back in time to record moments spent watching summer Saturday trains on the West of England mainline, overloaded trains struggling up the Devon banks carrying excited holidaymakers to the West country resorts ... Happy days. Did you ever go back to try and capture a Monument Valley Sunset on film? I have returned to many of the places I loved when I was a youth, some are just as I remembered, others have changed beyond recognition. I encourage my own children to take photographs, but its hard to get then to understand why, an album full of selfies might appeal to some, but capturing a changing world on film can be very rewarding. That was a bit of luck finding that Golden Eagle Pass.

I developed a phobia of traveling, and my husband, my childrens and I remain prisoners of the island of Reunion (even if it is a beautiful island !) I can only travel virtually trough your beautiful video, until one day, I hope I heal to make this wonderful dream: to visit Switzerland, and who knows ? Perhaps one day take this train me too ? Big kisses and thank you for sharing, it helps me to dream.

Tim I walked this route last summer (June 2018) with the intention of walking the Eiger Trail as part of my adventure. Alas, due to exceptionally late season snowfall the Trail was still closed in mid June mainly because of avalanche danger; but the views from Wengernalp alone are stunning. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Tim! I hope You are fine. This is one of the most beautiful videos of you. I was in January 1985 in Wengen around the Lauberhornabfahrt (men's downhill) to see. Was really very nice, but also very expensive. But you are rewarded with the beauty of the landscape. This was my only holiday in Switzerland. Many greetings from Hans from the Mühlviertel.

Hi Johann, I'm fine thank you. I love to visit the railways radiating from Interlaken, they are different, some use rack and pinion, some adhesion, some use both, standard and narrow gauge. The scenery is some the best in the world. It is expensive, but worth it. I would like to visit in winter next time as I would love to see the snow, we don't get much in the South of England. Best wishes. Tim.
