Waldenburgerli

Georgios Kefalas

After 140 years, Switzerland's narrowest narrow-gauge railway closed down at the end of operations on Easter weekend. The 13-kilometer-long line between Waldenburg and Liestal, with a 75-centimeter gauge, will be converted to the meter gauge standard for trams by the end of 2022. The picture shows two trams decorated with flowers for the final run.
