Brienz Rothorn Bahn (Switzerland) - Drivers Eye View

With the mist lifting on a warm still morning we catch the first train on the last operating day of 2015. The train crew are very friendly; keen we should enjoy their railway on this wonderful autumn day. We start climbing through autumn gold woods with shafts of sunshine breaking through the leaf cover creating an almost magical atmosphere, before passing through a series of tunnels, between which the line is perched on a narrow ledge, with occasional stunning views over the lake far below. We pass the tree line onto the rugged mountainside for more dramatic vistas across deep valleys and snow covered peaks. Take a seat and enjoy one of the most outstanding rides in Switzerland.
The railway is 7.6 kilometres (4.7 mi) long and the track gauge is 800 mm (2 ft 7 1⁄2 in)

It should not be taken for granted how much engineering and labor went in to building this stunning railway in such difficult terrain. Just beautiful in the Fall. Thanks for sharing!

Marvelous! Thanks for offering this to those of us who will never be able to get to your country. Real time, real view and no background music, the closest to "being there"!

Rode this line nearly 3 years ago. A superb railway with some magnificent scenery. A trip which will still be in my mind in the years to come. If you're in this area, well worth a ride. Excellent video.

this line traveling up the slopes is like a garden railway even though it is not. The scenery is spectacular. So green and burnt autumn colors as well. Beautiful!

It's all good. The little train, all the sounds and beautiful scenery. No yakking, just the sounds of the track and the little engine that could. Thank you so much. The camera work was excellent.

A ride to the top of the world.
Awe-inspiring, beautiful, just gorgeous scenery. I would love to ride this, just wow!!

Its like riding through an enchanted forest! So beautiful and I can't believe the track is less than 3 feet wide. Its better maintained then most railroad tracks here in the US!

Every time I'm pissed off, I watch this video, it helps me to calm down and relax( by the way it's 13th time....) Thank you🤗👍

I remember in my childhood I was there - Living two weeks in a guest house - half way at this mountain.
They are also diesel driven trains there, for service and transportation. The steam trains are for tourists.
Thank you for the video.
