The GoldenPass MOB Belle Epoque train that runs on the Montreux–Zweisimmen line offers a journey with a romantic, retro-style ambience. Its coaches are inspired by the Golden Mountain Pullman Express from the 1930s, a luxury train in the style of Orient Express that was short-lived due to the economic crisis of the period. It disappeared from circulation rather quickly. The current train is a reproduction of the Belle Époque style of its predecessors, in which you will travel like a king. You can even find a coach that houses a wine cellar in which you can taste wines from the area in a warm, convivial atmosphere.
Beautiful Carriages and Scenic Views
Not only is the train beautiful and comfortable – but the views out of the window are pretty impressive too. It all makes for an unforgettable experience as you glide through the splendid Swiss scenery ranging from forests to lakes to mountains – a perfect Swiss experience.
Departing from Montreux, the train overhangs Lake Geneva all the way. Just a few bends left and it rushes down into the valley. It travels a few kilometres through the Gruyère district before heading for the Pays-d’Enhaut, an enchanting corner of the country which preserved in time. Now it’s time to head for the world-famous Gstaad and then Zweisimmen. It’s a whole country in all its diversity, from the city to the countryside, with its lakes, peaks, forests and traditional houses. On board the Belle Époque carriages, the journey becomes magical.
