ZURICH Gold Coast Swiss rail cab ride 1968

We follow Zurich's Right-Bank Line along the lake's Gold Coast from Rapperswil to Switzerland's largest city with rare cab ride footage & insights. The film captures this perennially futuristic route just as it was modernised with high speed 'mirage' EMU stock and state-of-the-art signalling, 40 years since it was electrified in 1926, whilst steam trains prevailed elsewhere. It ran on time and still does, now integrated into Zurich's S-Bahn.
Commentary voiced by Paul Russenberger in 1999 accompanies original 1968 8mm silent cine film footage.
