Swiss Claim Record For World’s Longest Passenger Train With Alpine Trip

That's quite an achievement.

I believe they did the trip downhill. Had they done it uphill the amount of electricity required from the catenary would have instantly overloaded it!

 

The train actually ran from Preda and thru Bergun, Thusus, and over Landwasser Viaduct to Alvaneu - 24.93 kilometer

You could run a similar working over the Albula Line using the ABe 8/12 Allegra units that come with the Bernina Line

 

Not sure what this has to do with TSC, but good for them for it.

 

Always one show-stopper. People here including DTG are also interested in real-world railways not just TSC.

 

Most of those usually get posted in Off Topic though...

Just sayin'

 

More impressive and moving than the train itself was the sheer delight of the hordes of passengers and spectators covering the mountainsides and valley.
