Glacier Express Information

Glacier Express
The official site of the Glacier Express has information about the train in three languages. Also see RailGourmino swissAlps for lunch information and reservations (whether you want a hot meal at your seat, a meal in the dining car, or a cold lunch from the Railbar).

Rhaetische Bahn
The RhB is a narrow-gauge railroad with spectacular bridges, spiral tunnels, and some of the most appealing scenery in Switzerland. The Glacier Express operates on RhB tracks between Chur and Davos or St. Moritz.

Also see:

Dampfbahn Furka-Bergstrecke (DFB)
If you rode the Glacier Express before 1942, you'll recognize the impeccably restored cars and tracks of the Furka Cogwheel Steam Railway. You can reach the train's route by car or Swiss Postal Bus.
