Рет қаралды 1,889,407
Күн бұрынIn this video, you can enjoy the cab ride - train driver's view from the famous Pilatus cogwheel Railway on a steep descent from Pilatus Kulm to Alpnachstad and back to Pilatus Kulm in 4K/60 frames per second.
The Pilatus Cogwheel Railway opened in 1889. With a gradient of up to 48 percent, it is the steepest cogwheel railway in the world and the only one of its kind. The 4,618-meter-long railway from Alpnachstad to Pilatus Kulm is passing alpine meadows and striking rock formations. Since its opening, until today, that has not changed.
Technical information:
Leg Alpnachstad - Pilatus Kulm
Opened (steam operation) 4 June 1889
Reopened (after electrification) 15 May 1937
Reopened with new railcars 5 June 2023
Operation time May to November
Difference in altitude 1,635 m
Length of railway line 4,618 m
Speed ascent: 15 km/h;
Speed descent: 9 km/h (on a gradient more than 39%), 12 km/h (on a gradient less than 39%)
Travel time: ascent: 27 min., descent: 33 min.
I would like to thank the Pilatus Bahnen for giving me the opportunity to record this video and for all the valuable help from the staff.

The ride down is a dream. You can see the ethereal beauty of Lake Lucerne while going down these gigantic mountains in Switzerland, going in and out through these tunnels inside these majestic mountains. It’s pure poetry, the power of depth and the beauty beyond your imagination, to your eyes as well, through your heart.

I went on this cab ride at age 15 in '77 and enjoyed it so much, going up Pilatus a second time five years later in '82. It offers such amazing vistas of Luzern and beyond. I have always favored Luzern, Innsbruck, Salzburg and Heidelberg as my favorite small German speaking cities as well as a sampling of different German dialects. I feel the Lake of the Four Forest Cantons has the place in my American soul as the best scenery in the world and a Pilatus trip is the perfect way to cap a visit there. Thanks for sharing this video of a memory of mine that is nearly 50 years old.

I used to think driving trains down 1:37 (2.7%) gradients was alarming at times.... but an average gradient of 35% with sections as steep as 48% is just nuts, noting that the traction motors, which engage the cogwheels horizontally into both sides of the racks between the rails are used for powering the train uphill and for braking it when travelling downhill... they generate electricity, which is fed into cooled electrical resistances, also known as grids, which has a very considerable braking effect... the train wheels are simply there to guide it.... an amazing piece of railway engineering...

Pilatus..with a coach driver. I was tour leader with a group. We took this train and I thought it was magnificent. Bobby, our coach driver got scared after about 5 minutes, and covered his eyes and held on tight. I said I can't understand your fear...you have driven on difficult roads with big drops and hairpin bends..Bobby responded..When I am driving, I am in control and not worried. I just saw this train driver for a few seconds and this climb is scarier than any mountain roads I have driven on.

@johneyton-ze6ws very nice story, Loved it. Gradient 48% is very, very steep indeed. I have never seen something alike. If you observe the way up to the mountain, camera the position of the camera was a little bit too low. I really did not expect to be so steep. Impressive.

Bemerkenswert ist der Unterschied zwischen diesen hochmodernen Zügen auf 800-mm-Spur und zB der romantischen alten meterspurigen Achensee-Dampfzahnradbahn von Jenbach zum Achensee in Österreich/Tirol. (Highly interesting line and beautiful ride. Remarkable is the difference between these modern trains on 800-mm-gauge and the romantic and old 1000 mm-gauge Achensee-Dampfzahnradbahn von Jenbach to Lake Achen in Österreich/Tirol.)

@montgomeryscott1656 You are right. Both mountain cogwheel railways and so different. Both very beautiful and interesting. The Pilatus railway just reopened with new railcars on 5 June 2023.

Thanks so much for a wonderful ride. I always wanted to do one of these but alas, not to be. At least I have done it "virtual" now. Interesting about the "points" changing. I was glad we got to see that at least once. Also, those brave cows, saw one even braver on the steep slope on the way down. Beautiful views as well!
