Furka-Oberalp-Bahn - English • Great Railways

The Furka-Oberalp-Bahn (FO) was a narrow-gauge railway company in Switzerland. It merged 1 January 2003 with the BVZ Zermatt-Bahn to Matterhorn-Gotthard-Bahn (MGB), which today operates the meterspurigen FO routes. The 97 kilometer long railway connects the cantons of Graubünden, Uri and Wallis. Originally the line ran over the Furka Pass but due to the harsh winter conditions it could only run in the summer. In 1983 the winter operation was also possible thanks to the construction of the Furka base tunnel. The almost 4 kilometer long former Schöllenen line connects Göschenen to the (old) Gotthard line with the main line in Andermatt.
