Berninabahn and Piz Bernina

The Bernina Railway is a single-track 1000 mm gauge railway line forming part of the Rhaetian Railway. It links St. Moritz, Switzerland, with Tirano, Italy, via the Bernina Pass. Reaching a height of 2253 m, it is the highest railway crossing in Europe and the third-highest railway in Switzerland. It also ranks as the highest adhesion railway of the continent, and – with inclines of up to 7% – as one of the steepest adhesion railways in the world.
