Steam Trains Return to Furka Pass | Texas News

This weekend celebrates 100 years of the legendary Furka railway—the same scenic route that starred in Goldfinger and once carried vital traffic across the Swiss Alps. After closing in the 80s, a band of passionate volunteers, dubbed the “pioneers,” revived it as a heritage line, restoring steam engines and tracks to their original glory. Now, for just 46 Swiss francs, tourists can ride these roaring vintage trains through snow-dusted meadows and rushing rivers, soaking in the sounds and soul of a bygone era. It’s not just a ride—it’s a time machine, and once you catch the Furka Virus, you’re hooked for life.
