Mighty Trains Series 3

From the locomotive to rail traffic control to the maintenance depot, Mighty Trains takes audiences on a journey riding the rails around the world. We will follow the engineers and conductors as they navigate their way through busy rail yards, vie for priority departures and deal with the unexpected, oftentimes on railways designed almost 200 years ago.

Part 3 Bernina Express

Mighty Trains takes you to Switzerland – home of the Bernina Express. It's one of the most beautiful train journeys on earth – especially in the winter. Traveling along the highest railway line in Europe, this passenger train navigates 55 tunnels, nearly 200 viaducts and bridges. The engineering feats along the line are so spectacular it's the first of three railway lines on the planet to make the UNESCO World Heritage list.
