13. The Bergen Railway, Norway
Span: Bergen and Hønefoss
The 371 km line is rightly named as one of the most beautiful train journeys in the world. It’s a 7-hour ride that takes you through the most beautiful plateaus and unspoiled nature in the serenity of Norway.
14. The Glacier Express, Switzerland
Span: St. Moritz in the Swiss Alps to Zermatt
Taking you across the lofty alpine in Swiss Alps, the Glacier Express is rightly the rider of the glaciers. Touted as the slowest express train in the world, the Glacier Express is an 8-hour ride and has a world of surprises en route for you. Bottle-necked valleys, tight curves, 91 tunnels, and 291 bridges sound fascinating to me! How about you?
15. Trans-Harz Railway, Germany
Span: Wernigerode – Nordhausen Nord
The 60 km track of Trans-Harz Railway runs from North to South of Germany. The picture-perfect scenery of the Harz all covered in dreamy white is the real love for the wanderlusts as the narrow gauge ride runs past the sweeping landscapes. The best thing about traveling in a steam engine is that it resembles the dreamy setup created by our fantasies. Take the 132 km ride and you will thank your stars for being on a spectacular train ride as this.
