The Arosa Railway takes you from Chur to Arosa, and a fantastic highlight of the journey is certainly the Langwieser Viaduct. As leisurely as a tram, the Arosa Railway chugs through Chur, past the city walls, the Maltese Tower, and the Obertor Gate, the landmark of the Graubünden capital. But soon, the city stroll on rails is over. At the city limits, the Arosa Railway transforms into a mountain railway and winds through the rugged Schanfigg Valley up to Arosa. A fantastic highlight of the journey to Arosa is the Langwieser Viaduct. The authentic rolling stock reflects the time period of spring 2007.

The Arosa Railway:

The Arosa line is a mountain railway. Tight curves, steep sections, and correspondingly adjusted speeds characterize the journeys between Chur and Arosa. Not all RhB vehicles can operate on this line. Between Chur and Arosa, most trains are operated by the Ge 4/4" locomotives, some as regular locomotive-hauled trains, some as shuttle trains. The latter always have the locomotive on the uphill side and the control car on the downhill side.

The Arosa Express is a special train. It is distinguished not only by its all-blue livery, decorated with flowers and snowflakes, but also by its comfort. The first-class carriage is designed as a saloon car with comfortable seats and large windows. These carriages were created by converting existing vehicles. The baggage car is also an "exotic" RhB model, and the control car was converted from one from the old Arosa Railway, which ran on direct current. Trains on the Arosa Line run almost exclusively continuously between Chur and Arosa. They run hourly throughout the day. Thus, the crossings are almost always at the same stations. Only rarely do FAK trains or freight trains run on this line, as the rare freight cars are added to the passenger trains whenever possible. Only in St. Peter, where timber is loaded on a separate track, can you occasionally see a locomotive hauling loaded wagons down to Chur and Landquart.
