6 New Train Routes We’re Excited About
"Switzerland has no shortage of scenic rail routes, but the Goldenpass Express could make hopping between the ski resorts in Montreux, Gstaad, and Interlaken even more panoramic. Seat reservations are now open on the new locomotive by Italian design firm Pininfarina (best known for its Ferrari and Maserati cars), which can effortlessly shift between a narrow and standard track gauge—meaning travelers will no longer have to change trains at Zweisimmen station. The real showstopper, though, is its floor-to-ceiling windows, which feature anti-reflection technology for optimal photo-taking onboard. With its grand debut scheduled for December 2022 and a promise of dramatic views of the Bernese Alps, this is one train ride worth waiting for."
