World's Most Beautiful Railway - The Bernina Express
Shortly after the construction of the Gotthard tunnel, Switzerland pulled off another pioneering achievement: the construction of the Thusis - St. Moritz railway line between 1899 and 1903. This opened the Upper Engadine to tourists. The Rhaetian Railway still passes over the same bridges and through the same loop tunnels. A still greater challenge was the subsequent construction of the Bernina Railway. No other railway in the world overcomes such steep gradients and winds through such steep curves without the help of a cogwheel.

An excerpt of the film The Most Beautiful Train in the Alps
Bernina Express. Chur to Tirano. April - The best time to travel.
This is a great way to travel across the Alps of Switzerland into Italy. This trip is described as one of the worlds great train rides and, as it turns out, with some justification! April 2016 was a good time to go as there was still lots of snow but the towns and valleys were carpeted in green.
Bernina Express: Tirano, Italy - St. Moritz, Switzerland
This is a great train ride with spectacular view all the way. When we got to the top of summit, just wild what we saw. Snow peaked mountains, ice covered summit lakes, skiers skying past the train. Really glad the weather was on our side. Sometimes, It could be a whole trip in the clouds with nothing to look at.
