The Furka Steam Train
A real steam engine pulls the nostalgic train composition from Realp (1420 m a.s.l.) to Furka (2160 m a.s.l.) and then continues through glorious mountainscapes to Gletsch (1760 m a.s.l.). Here, a Postbus connects you to either Meiringen or Oberwald. The original Glacier Express Route until Oberwald will be opened on Aug 20 2010. Bonus with Swiss Travel System tickets: 20% discount on the ticket price. Please note that the Furka Steam Train does not operate year round. The exact times are available at http://www.furka-bergstrecke.ch/eng/index.htm.
