Engelberg is a tranquil spa town in Switzerland, not far from Lucerne. It comes up with an attraction that has caused a sensation worldwide: a cable car that the Swiss considered worthy of being included in the "Swiss Miniature" Park as one of the most important sights in the country. The 45-minute trip up the Titlis is an experience of a special kind. From the gently green valley floor, it leads up into a high alpine glacier world. If you want to get to the summit station at an altitude of 3020 m, you can board the world's first revolving cable car. The rotating gondola floor allows ever new, spectacular views of crevasses, ice breaks and rock formations. Impressive mountain panoramas and, in appropriate weather, unique views change continuously and shorten the 3/4 hour drive. For model railroaders, this is a fantastic opportunity to let their creativity run wild in the design of challenging mountain worlds.
