  • Real Rail Adventures: Switzerland Switzerland
    Real Rail Adventures: Switzerland TRANSCRIPT Jeff Wilson-On Camera: Hi, I’m Jeff Wilson, and I love trains! I’ve always been fascinated with figuring out how things work, so to me trains are irresistible—the history, the variety, the technical ingenuity. And if there’s one place that’s guaranteed to make a rail fan’s dreams come true, it has to be Switzerland! Jeff Voice-Over: Join me as crisscross a nation that seems to love trains as much as I do. Next, on Real Rail Adventures: Switzerland. Jeff OC: Why do people love trains? Is it the adrenaline rush of big machines, surging against probability up a mountainside? Jeff VO: Is it the thrill of exploration—the way they can slice through remote areas, giving us up-close views of inaccessible landscapes? Jeff VO: Maybe it’s the nostalgia, the echoes of a time gone by when trains were the lifeblood of everyday people and the station the center of every town. Jeff OC: Or maybe we love trains because they’re just plain fun! Jeff VO: As an author and host of home improvement TV shows, I’ve had lots of adventures travelling across the US. Now I’m looking for even more adventure around the world. And I can think of no better way to travel than by train. Jeff VO: Staking out the center of Europe and chiseled in high relief by the Alp mountain range, Switzerland seems to have it all: sophisticated cities, and welcoming villages; glacial summits, and flower-strewn meadows straight from the pages of Heidi.
