Chur–Arosa railway

  • The Chur–Arosa railway, also called the Arosabahn, Arosalinie, Aroserbahn or Aroserlinie (all meaning Arosa railway or line), is a Swiss metre-gauge railway, which is operated by the Rhaetian Railway (Rhätischen Bahn; RhB). It was built in 1914 by the former Chur-Arosa-Bahn (Chur-Arosa Railway; ChA) to connect the Grisons capital, Chur, with the spa town of Arosa. Since 1942, it has been integrated into the network of the Rhaetian Railway. The name of the former company is still used as a name for the line.

This is my next route for my tsw2 and it comes out on the 23 march 2021 this Thursday

Me and my mum went for a nice walk from Cullercoats metro station to Tynemouth to North Shields Fish Quay and straight back to Tynemouth and back to Cullercoats then back home again but I took these three photos of these three big boats at North Shileds Fish Quay I think they looked amazing.
