This 269 page large format hardback is the first of several volumes that will be published successively, which review and describe each and every rack railway line that exists or has existed throughout the world (history, infrastructure, technical characteristics, motor and rolling stock...), and, in addition, an overview of the main and fundamental aspects of this spectacular means of transport. The first volume is dedicated to Switzerland, the country with the largest number of mountain railways in the world.
