Unusual railway tracks

Not all railways are the same. Some of them are real wonders of technology that attract tourists from all over the world.

One of the most famous unusual railways is the "Singing Tunnel Road", located in Switzerland. This road passes through 15 tunnels that connect to each other. Each tunnel has its own unique "music" created by the train passing through it.

Another interesting railway is the "Slope Road" located in Austria. This road, consisting of 60 kilometers, is the longest and steepest in the world. It passes through amazing alpine slopes covered with snow and amazing panoramas.

There are also «The Road of Death», «Fog», «Coniferous Forest», «Blooming Garden» and others.

All these unusual railways are amazing and are certainly among the most beautiful in the world.

Technologies and engineering solutions used for the construction of unusual railways

Unusual railways are engineering solutions that allow you to design and build roads in difficult geographical conditions. They can be used to build roads in areas with complicated conditions, such as mountains, deep faults, rivers, lakes, ponds, swamps, deserts, etc.

One of the most common is the construction of unique bridges, but where each detail is designed separately. Bridges can be built over various types of obstacles, such as rivers, faults, swamps, etc.

Tunnels are often used for the construction of roads passing through the mountains. A tunnel is a way to connect two sections that are separated by a mountain. The tunnel is an elongated passage that runs through the mountain and at times the planning of this section takes longer than the construction itself, and the exploration of rocks takes more than a year.

Traveling on unusual railways

Unusual railways represent an incredible journey through time and space. They bring us amazing views, amazing adventures and unforgettable experiences.

I would start my journey with a trip on the longest railway in the world - Trans-Siberian Railway. This amazing path passes through various regions of Russia, from Moscow to Vladivostok. The path is an incredible combination of diverse landscapes, amazing cities, fabulous villages, amazing stations and people.

Next, I would like to go to the highest railway in the world - Qinghai-Tibet Railway. This route, consisting of 1,620 km, passes through an area consisting of mountains, streams and amazing landscapes.

During this journey, I saw, heard, felt a lot of new things, and I got the impression that I was in childhood, when time goes very slowly.

The most interesting and unique paths

Firstly, there is a railway that runs through the Alps. This railway, known as the Glacier Express, is the longest in Europe. It passes through 291 bridges, 91 tunnels, 16 cycle gorges, 691 miles (1,110 km) and 8 hours. Glacier Express is an amazing way to travel, with views that you need to see at least once in your life.

Another unique railway is the White Pass & Yukon Route. This railway, consisting of 20 miles (32 km), is one of the oldest and highest (3,000 ft). The White Pass & Yukon Route is an amazing way to travel, with panoramas that will never be forgotten.

The third unique railway is the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway. Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is an 88-mile (142-km) section. Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is an amazing way to travel, with views that surprise.

Finally, there is the Trans-Siberian Railway. Trans-Siberian Railway is a 9288-mile (14971-km) section, which is the longest in the world, we mentioned it earlier, but it's really worth it.
