  • In this video you can enjoy the cab ride - train driver's view from Schynige Platte - Wilderswil in Switzerland along the Schynige Platte mountain rack Railway. You can enjoy this video in the resolution 4K/60 frames per second.
    The Schynige Platte Railway is a mountain railway in the Bernese Highlands area of Switzerland, which connects the town of Wilderswil, near Interlaken, with the famous wildflower gardens of the Schynige Platte. It is built to 800 mm gauge (2 ft 7+1⁄2 in gauge) and is electrified using a 1500 V DC overhead supply. It is a rack railway, using the Riggenbach rack with a maximum gradient of 25% . The Schynige Platte Railway commences from Wilderswil station at an altitude of 584 m (1,916 ft), where it connects with the 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) metre gauge line of the Berner Oberland-Bahn (BOB), which operates to Interlaken Ost, Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald.
    In the final stretch of the ascent, views open up of the glistening giants of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau mountains to the south. The line terminates at Schynige Platte station at an altitude of 1,987 m (6,520 ft), after a journey of 7.25 km (4.50 mi) and a height gain of 1,420 m (4,659 ft). The Schynige Platte alpine botanical garden, a hotel and a mountain restaurant are all located near the summit station. The line only operates in summer months, from the beginning of June to the middle of October. As the upper section of the route, between Breitlauenen and the summit, is subject to heavy winter snowfall and occasional avalanches, the overhead catenary on this section is dismantled after the last train of the year, and reinstated before the first train of the next year can run.
    The line opened, using steam traction, in May 1893, and was electrified in 1914.
    I would like to thank the Jungfraubahnen for giving me the opportunity to record this video and for all the valuable help from the staff.

Spectacular and nice cab ride with very beautiful landscapes seen, particularly I've appreciated at 3.54, 4.19, 19,57 and 24,54. Sun during this cab ride, even if it was not always visible, due to the situation of the tracks and perhaps the time.

      It’s a cogwheel train - the only way possible to climb this height, and descend with a train. The cogwheel needs time to grip into its rail (that’s the rail in the middle).

      @@RailRelaxation No, I have extremely fast internet connection. Most likely poor camera quality, even if it says 4k. It's definitely not professional camera, looks like gopro/dji, but could be even worse. On your other videos professional cameras was not used also, but it was less out of focus/less blur. I work with video/photography and understand, that you can't expect best quality with small action cameras, but this time video was too much out of details. Hopefully next time it will be better, cheers ;)
