  • Today we’re going to have a look at the first* steep grade railway in Europe, the original Rigibahn for a second time (this time with sunny weather). The Rigi is a mountain located in central Switzerland within the cantons of Schwyz and Luzern. It’s a popular tourist destination. Almost completely surrounded by lakes, the journey to the top offers spectacular views.
    Two of Switzerland’s three standard gauge rack railways serve the Rigi mountain. The one we’re looking at today starts in Vitznau, a scenic boat ride away from the city of Luzern (Lucerne).
    If anybody would like to see the third standard gauge rack railway in Switzerland (Rorschach - Heiden Bahn), click this link:

    * Another rack railway was completed the year before in Ostermundigen for a quarry, but they delayed their official opening to make the Rigibahn the first rack railway.

    What a great ride. It reminded me of one of those alpine roller coasters that keep going up and up. Thanks for showing me a part of the world that I will never actually see in reality.

    Made this same trip in the summer (Sunday 10th July) of 2022 - the weather was almost identical to that featured here - the new trains had been introduced only a couple of months before our visit - stunning views from the very summit of Rigi Kulm - it's not cheap though but fortunately the Hotel we were staying at had a discount scheme in operation so a not quite so obscene amount of money changed hands!

    Rigi was the first mountain-top experience my wife and I had when we visited Switzerland (our trip started in Luzern). The view up there was incredible, as was the train ride up. Thanks for sharing this video and for bringing back good memories!

      A funicular is not self-powered and instead hauled by steel cables (and they are usually not very long). This is a rack railway.

    This line is weird. A tourist rack railway that's double tracked and electrified, has simple scaffolding for halts and hypermodern stationbuildings and to top it all: cows with cowbells and Buddhists monks... 👍( O, and since I mentioned cowbells it's now mandatory for me to say that "I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!"😂)

  • @ronm3245

    Amazing geology of this mountain! It is uplifted and tilted, with very dramatic fault escarpments. Apparently conglomerate, especially visible at the opening to the tunnel.

    • @dziltener
      @dziltener Рік тому

      The Rigi is actually sediment left by the massive glaciers that once covered the regions, which makes it quite different to the other mountains around

    To be honest I don't like it so much. A lot of the video is staring at the mountain. For a rack railway the downhill trip is probably a better idea because of the views.

    • @lorirocks777
      @lorirocks777  Рік тому +1

      Remove the first 1, I'm not sure where you're getting that number. Using common sense, I take it you meant 3'000 m. You don't "need" supplemental oxygen yet at that elevation, unless you're elderly or have reduced longue capacity. I've been higher than that without it and felt fine.
