★ Cab ride 🇨🇭St. Moritz - 🇮🇹Tirano (Bernina pass), Switzerland to Italy [10.2019]
In this video, we look at one of Switzerland's most beautiful and unique railways, the Unesco heritage listed Berninabahn.
The Bernina railway sets a few records, including being the highest railway alpine crossing in Europe (2253m), the highest adhesion railway of the continent, the open air railway with the greatest height difference (1824m) and furthermore one of the steepest adhesion railways (conventional railway without cogs) worldwide, with gradients of up to 7%.
A unique aspect of Switzerland's narrow gauge mountain railways is the mixing of passenger and freight wagons in a single train, with wagons often added or removed at intermediate stops with shunting locomotives. On the Bernina line, the cargo mostly consists of wood on stake cars and derivatives of oil in tank cars.

🎧 About This Track

The rain sounds in this track range from gentle drizzles to steady rainfall, creating a natural rhythm that the human brain finds deeply soothing. Research has shown that rain sounds activate the parasympathetic nervous system, reducing stress hormones and promoting relaxation. The audio captures the full spectrum of rainfall, from the soft patter on leaves to the deeper tones of rain on various surfaces.
Listening to this audio can provide numerous benefits for both mental and physical well-being. Rain sounds have been scientifically shown to reduce cortisol levels, the primary stress hormone. The consistent, natural rhythm helps regulate heart rate and breathing, promoting a state of deep relaxation. Many listeners report improved sleep quality and reduced anxiety after incorporating rain sounds into their routines.
Research in environmental psychology has demonstrated that rain sounds belong to a category called 'pink noise' - sounds that have equal energy per octave. Unlike white noise, pink noise more closely mimics natural sound patterns, which the human brain finds inherently calming. Studies published in the Journal of Theoretical Biology found that pink noise can enhance deep sleep by synchronizing brain waves with the sound patterns. The rhythmic, predictable nature of rainfall activates the parasympathetic nervous system, triggering a relaxation response that reduces heart rate and blood pressure.
