The “Glacier Express” is an international sightseeing train, one of the icons for Switzerland which is familiar to many people in the world.

It enjoys a worldwide reputation as a tourist train which travels all the way from Zermatt to St.Moritz through the European Alps in southwestern Switzerland, using both of Rhätisch Railways and Matterhorn Gotthard Railways. It runs so slowly that it takes eight hours in order to go from the first stop to the last and it gives passengers enough time to appreciate the magnificent Alpine landscape from the panoramic windows.


Many of the currently deployed locomotive Ge4/4 III are in special liveries.
