On Saturday (October 29) Rhätische Bahn (Rhaetian Railway) will attempt to set a new world record for operating the longest passenger train. The 1,910-metre-long train with 100 coaches will travel along the scenic Albula/Bernina UNESCO World Heritage route from Preda to Bergün, and over the world-famous Landwasser Viaduct. The trip spans nearly 25 kilometers (roughly 15 miles) of breathtaking mountain views with 48 bridges and 22 tunnels. On the descent, the train is fully braked by electric recuperation. This produces electricity that is fed to the overhead line and can be used by other trains on the RhB network (as well as other railways in Switzerland and abroad). Everyone lucky enough to have a "ticket to ride" enjoy!
