		It is particularly valuable in the Berner Oberland because you get 50% off of just about everything, including the Jungfraujoch trip.
		It is a close call between the cost benefits of the Swiss Card and the Berner Oberland Regional Pass.
		The cost of the regional passs is high enough that you have to use it quite a bit on the free days to get a savings.

		Railways first came to this part of the Berner Oberland in August 1872 when the Bödeli-Bahn opened a line from Därligen to Interlaken West.
		The Lötschberg tunnel was still many years away so the solution to their problem was to take over the ailing BSWB and extend the line from a new junction at Zweikirchen to rejoin the Gotthard route at Göschenen.
		The new company, GZI (Göschenen-Zweikirchen-Interlaken Bahn) still had the mountains to contend with but the tunneling experience gained by the Gotthard-Bahn and the seemingly endless supply of cash from its' financiers made the unthinkable of 10 years before possible.

		Rising from the glittering waters of the Brienzersee lake in the Berner Oberland, is the picturesque resort village of Brienz, splendidly blending traditional and contemporary Swiss culture, architecture and lifestyles.
		Adjacent the lake shores where still today the marvelous Loetschberg paddle steamer ship docks during the warm tourist seasons, are located both the railway stations of the SBB Lucerne-Interlaken line as well as the tiny terminus of the Brienz- Rothorn Bahn narrow gauge line.
		Resembling a fascinating giant model rail system, the BRB railway is truely a trip into yesteryear, with old rack-gear steam locomotives pushing vintage open-air coaches up the steep grades to the summit of the Rothorn mountain.

		The snow will be long gone in Lauterbrunnen by the end of April, and even in the middle of winter it's a very unusual year that presents access problems, and then only for very brief periods.
		Train access from Zurich is excellent - the usual route is to head through Bern, then along through Spiez and Thun to Interlaken, changing at Interlaken Ost to the Berner Oberland Bahn cog train.
		You can check the schedule at www.sbb.ch, but my recollection is that there's a train every couple of hours.

		By 1914, the network was extended from Ilanz to Disentis in the Bndner Oberland, from Samedan to Scuol-Tarasp in the Engadin and from Davos to Filisur, giving Davos a connection to the Albula line.
		The RhB line serves the small towns in the valley and is therefore not so straight as the SBB line is. Chur is the Capital of the Canton of Grisons and the end point of the SBB line from the lowlands.

		An idea (my bias is showing) is to take the Montreux Oberland Bahn (MOB) train from Montreux to Zweisimmen.
		The scenery is very nice, and they'll get into the Berner Oberland's mountains with the typical "Swiss" farms and chalets.
		Note that September is not exactly high season here, so the "sights" will be the mountains and hiking, rather than organized tourist activities and fine dining.

		The road reaches flatland at Wilderswil where the BOB (Berner Oberland Bahn) 800mm gauge cog train heads up to the Schynige Platte (2061m) for a panorama of the Jungfrau group that is too close to appreciate from Grindelwald.
