  • In this video, you can enjoy the cab ride - train driver's view from the famous Pilatus cogwheel Railway on a steep descent from Pilatus Kulm to Alpnachstad and back to Pilatus Kulm in 4K/60 frames per second.
    The Pilatus Cogwheel Railway opened in 1889. With a gradient of up to 48 percent, it is the steepest cogwheel railway in the world and the only one of its kind. The 4,618-meter-long railway from Alpnachstad to Pilatus Kulm is passing alpine meadows and striking rock formations. Since its opening, until today, that has not changed.
    Technical information:
    Leg Alpnachstad - Pilatus Kulm
    Opened (steam operation) 4 June 1889
    Reopened (after electrification) 15 May 1937
    Reopened with new railcars 5 June 2023
    Operation time May to November
    Difference in altitude 1,635 m
    Length of railway line 4,618 m
    Speed ascent: 15 km/h;
    Speed descent: 9 km/h (on a gradient more than 39%), 12 km/h (on a gradient less than 39%)
    Travel time: ascent: 27 min., descent: 33 min.
    I would like to thank the Pilatus Bahnen for giving me the opportunity to record this video and for all the valuable help from the staff.

    The ride down is a dream.

It’s pure poetry, the power of depth and the beauty beyond your imagination, to your eyes as well, through your heart.

    I used to think driving trains down 1:37 (2.7%) gradients was alarming at times.... but an average gradient of 35% with sections as steep as 48% is just nuts, noting that the traction motors, which engage the cogwheels horizontally into both sides of the racks between the rails are used for powering the train uphill and for braking it when travelling downhill... they generate electricity, which is fed into cooled electrical resistances, also known as grids, which has a very considerable braking effect... the train wheels are simply there to guide it.... an amazing piece of railway engineering...

    I went on this cab ride at age 15 in '77 and enjoyed it so much, going up Pilatus a second time five years later in '82. It offers such amazing vistas of Luzern and beyond. I have always favored Luzern, Innsbruck, Salzburg and Heidelberg as my favorite small German speaking cities as well as a sampling of different German dialects. I feel the Lake of the Four Forest Cantons has the place in my American soul as the best scenery in the world and a Pilatus trip is the perfect way to cap a visit there.
    Thanks for sharing this video of a memory of mine that is nearly 50 years old.

    Pilatus..with a coach driver. I was tour leader with a group. We took this train and I thought it was magnificent. Bobby, our coach driver got scared after about 5 minutes, and covered his eyes and held on tight. I said I can't understand your fear...you have driven on difficult roads with big drops and hairpin bends..Bobby responded..When I am driving, I am in control and not worried. I just saw this train driver for a few seconds and this climb is scarier than any mountain roads I have driven on.

    Good evening, honestly I still haven't figured out how the safety system (axle counter block?!?) works along the Swiss rack railways. For example, along rack railways equipped with departure signals, such as the WAB, these signals are arranged to signal that the way is free (green light) even if the downstream section (block) is already occupied by one or two trains a short distance from each other. Perhaps the trains all travel with the same number and the CTC considers them as a single train, even though the second train (and possibly the third) is not physically coupled to the previous one? Is there a maximum limit of unjoined trains that can be forwarded along the same section (block)? Grateful for the attention given to me, I welcome the opportunity to extend cordial and best regards
