Street View hits the stunning Swiss Alps railways

(Cross-posted on the Lat Long Blog)

From the Amazon to the ancient ruins of Pompeii, Street View technology has put imagery of some of the world's most interesting and significant sites online for everyone to enjoy. Now, for the first time in Google Maps, we're hitting the train tracks to capture the majesty of the famous railway lines of the Swiss Alps and the surrounding scenery.



In cooperation with Rhaetian Railway, our Street View team has collected images from one of the world's most scenic railway routes—the Albula-Bernina line in Switzerland—that will soon be live on Google Maps. The picturesque route through the Swiss Alps is one of most famous in the world, winding its way through wild mountain scenery from Thusis, Switzerland; past the resort town of St. Moritz; to its final stop just over the border in Tirano, Italy.
