A highlight of the rail journey is crossing high stone bridges. — MASSIMO PEDRAZZINI
My rail journey through the far southeastern region of Switzerland and into northern Italy commenced in Locarno at the rather expressive “Fart” station located below the main rail platforms. The railway is operated by the Ferrovie Autolinee Regionali Ticinesi (or Fart) in Switzerland and the Società Subalpina Imprese Ferroviarie (SSIF) in Italy.
Most Swiss railway journeys promise snow-capped mountains and jaw-dropping scenery of alpine lakes, rivers and lush meadows. Some journeys are more impressive than others, with the railway between Locarno (Switzerland) and Domodossola (Italy) on the Centovalli Express traversing some 100 valleys in two countries.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
