What travelers say:

Take the tooth rail train, "climb" to the famous Jungfrau 3450 meters observation deck in Switzerland, but unfortunately the sky is not beautiful, the snow is too big and nothing is seen. The tooth rail railway is a solution to replace the exhibition line and long tunnel in the steep natural slope. The actual steepest slope of ordinary rail railways in the world is 70 ‰ (1:14), and when it reaches 60 ‰ and above, it is necessary to use gears and tooth rails that fit with the tooth rails to prevent sliding due to insufficient adhesion between the wheels and rails. There are many tooth rail railways in Switzerland, which are a powerful tool for mountaineering. The railway that goes directly to the mouth of Jungfrau from Kleine Scheidegg is the most famous one.
