Remarks & Notes |
With a trainload of happy passengers steamlocomotive "Furkahorn" is slowly gliding down on the 11 % cog wheel section towards Realp, crossing the Furka Reuss on the 18 m high Wiler bridge. The locomotive was built in 1913 by SLM for the Brig-Furka-Disentis, sold to Vietnam in 1947, brought back to Switzerland in 1990 and is operational again for the DFB since 1993. |
