One of the shortest train journeys in the world (only 20km or 12 miles) is not one of the fastest. The journey takes approximately one hour. The train runs 15 km/h due to the steep terrain and the unique cog system that makes this stretch of the railway so particular. Unlike most railways, which use locomotives to pull their trains, the Rack Railway uses a system of cogwheels to grip a gear-like track, allowing it to climb up steep inclines.
