Zurich



We have finally arrived in Zurich. The trams here are very interesting. They are numbered 2-11 and 13-15. The picture on the upper right shows the 9 which runs by us. Another line that runs by us is the 10. There are other forms of trains, especially for going up steep hills. The Sielbahn Rigiblick, near our house, is a funicular railway -- two cars on a long cable. The Dolderbahn (lower right) is a cog-wheel railway -- a rack of gear teeth goes all the way up the hill.

Do you know why there's no #12?

No I don't know why There is no #12. I know #1 was switched to a busline. Maybe #12 was switched to a busline too.
