Filisur

Swiss Fellsman? Rhaetian Railways operate the metre gauge network in south east Switzerland. It is mainly electric but they have some diesels and also preserved steam on their books. RhB electric 605 Silvretta, a mere 60 years old, has just run round the Davos portion of the Glacier Express at the junction at Filisur but is held briefly while RhB 108 Engiadana, a splendid looking 2-8-0 dating from 1906, departs for Chur with a well loaded special excursion. 108 and sister 107 were retained for snowplough duties long after 27 other class members were sold to Siam and Brazil.
