Panorama photographed at Gletsch Station showing the steam train. The Glacier Express made the Gletsch station one of the most famous in the world between 1930 and 1981. Since the opening of the Furka tunnel, the friends of the railway have steadfastly strived to ensure that Furka's mountain route would not be dismantled. In the summer of 2010, the steam train was re-established, making the route Realp, in the Canton of Uri, and Oberwald, in the Canton of Valais and, once again, the Gletsch station is once again very busy, making it easy to discover this beautiful region. The Furka steam train runs from June to October.
