    The Glacier Express is probably Switzerland's most scenic train journey.   It's a year-round train service between Zermatt at the foot of the Matterhorn and St Moritz in the Engadin skiing area. 

    Billed as Europe's slowest express, its a narrow-gauge train which takes 7½ hours to cover just over 290 km (180 miles), at an average of around 24 mph.
