The Albula Railway is a single-track metre gauge railway line forming part of the so-called core network of the Rhaetian Railway (RhB), in the canton of Graubünden, Switzerland. It links Thusis on the Hinterrhein at 697 m and Filisur at 1,080 m with the spa resort of St. Moritz in Engadine at 1,775 m. Between Thusis and Filisur the train passes the Landwasser Viaduct, the most emblematic landmark of the railway line. Then it continues towards Bergün/Bravuogn and to Preda, the last station in the Albula Valley. Between these two villages, the train has to go through many spirals because of the high difference in altitude within a short distance (400 m for 5 km). The route includes six towering viaducts, three spiral tunnels, and two helical tunnels.

Construction of the Albula Railway began in September 1898, the opening took place on 1 July 1903, and the extension to St. Moritz commenced operations on 10 July 1904. With its 55 bridges and 39 tunnels, the 61.67-kilometre-long line is one of the most spectacular narrow-gauge railways in the world. On 7 July 2008, the Albula Railway and the Bernina Railway, which also forms part of the RhB, were jointly recorded in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, under the name Rhaetian Railway in the Albula / Bernina Landscapes.

Glacier Express (GEX), known as the “slowest express train in the world” is a direct eight-hour end-to-end connection between the major Swiss mountain resorts of Zermatt and St. Moritz. Operated by a joint venture between Matterhorn-Gotthard Bahn (MGB) and Rhaetian Bahn (RhB) on the narrow (meter-gauge) railway network in the Swiss central Alps it provides (together with Bernina Express) scenic and exclusive experience.

Chur is the capital of the canton of Graubünden, Switzerland. The railway station was opened in 1858 and it is the most important railway junction in Graubünden. The station is the terminus of the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB CFF FFS) standard-gauge main line from Zürich and is also one of the most important stations on the Rhaetian Railway (RhB) meter-gauge network.

St. Moritz is the most elegant holiday resort in Switzerland, It is the southern terminus of the Albula Railway Line and the northern terminus of the Bernina Railway Line from Tirano in Italy.
