One of the most spectacular ways to cross the Alps. The Bernina Express is the highest and steepest train that runs in Switzerland. This winding mountain railway connects northern and southern Europe without the use of any toothed-wheel mechanism. A particular high-point of the ride is the panoramic view from the Bernina Express, as it passes mighty glaciers. The train makes short work of the 55 Tunnels, 196 bridges and slopes of up to 70 millimetres per metre of incline that are found along its route. The physical high-point of the RhB is Ospizio Bernina, at 2,253 metres above sea level. Since summer 2008, the section between Thusis and Tirano has been classed as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
I live in Iceland and I've only been abroad once and that was to the UK and I didn't see much because I went straight from Heathrow to Cardiff (It was a youth project). By watching your videos I realized that the world is much more beautiful and diverse than I ever would have thought.
