Thanks to Paolo, we have another video from the meter gauge RhB network of Switzerland, this time on a regional train from Pontresina to Scuol-Tarasp. Included with the station names are the altitudes to give you an idea of the rate we're climbing. Maximum allowed speeds will pop up on the lower right, orange indicating a temporary lower speed. Also included are many details to the infrastructure - tunnel names with length, year of construction, bridges and other specialities along the way. On the top right, information about the gradients can be seen. the larger number indicates the promille value (1/10%) and the smaller number the distance of the gradient in meters. The white and black rectangles indicate that the track is level. The track from Bever to Scuol Tarasp was one of the 2 test tracks for 11kV 16⅔ Hz overhead power in 1913 along with the Lötschberg line (15kV). Try viewing in 4K whenever possible, as the quality seems poor below that, due to Youtube's compression.
