The beautiful Model Railway Layout at the Kaeserberg Railway Foundation

- The Kaeserberg Railway Foundation built one of the largest model railway layouts in Switzerland. Time taken to build 17 years with a total surface area of 610 square meters in HO scale. There are normal track gauge 16.5 mm (HO) and narrow track gauge 12.0 mm (HOm). The length of the track system is about 2,045 meters. It is a fantastic and amazing model railway layout with its own philosophy and history.
The story of the Kaeserberg Railway Foundation:
It's eleven o'clock. The sky is clear, the air dry and cold. The station master announces the arrival of the train for St. Jakobstadt. I turn to look one last time at the Kaeserberg, as if to make sure it hasn't disappeared. It is as beautiful as ever. I board the train and it pulls away slowly. In front of me, a small seven year-old boy, nose glued to the window, observes the billowing smoke from a steam engine of the Kaeserberg railway. We leave the small Graubunden village of Kaeserberg. The train penetrates deeper into the valley. The autumn countryside passes by the window. On emerging from the forest, St. Jakobstadt and its large station can be seen in the distance. The train slows down and stops. Off to one side, workmen are busy loading and unloading goods trains. This is the philosophy of the Kaeserberg Model Railway layout. It is a wonderful story, the tale of a childhood dream that became a reality thanks to the imagination, determination and patience of its designer, Marc Antiglio.
The Model Railway Layout:
The entire network is imaginary. However, meticulous attention to detail has been paid to the landscape and the work of the railway to ensure they are as faithful as possible to the Swiss reality. Built on three levels on a scale of 1:87, the network comprises 2,045 meters of track. Four railway lines operate in the Kaeserberg mountain region, managed by three companies: the CFF (Swiss Federal Railway), the RhB (Rhaetian Railway) and the KBB (Kaeserberg Railway). In order to make his dream come true and build the network, Marc Antiglio worked hard, spending hours at the drawing board to determine the specifications, design and trace out the plans of the future network and bring to fruition a concept that had lain in his mind for many years.
The first level:
The trains are marshalled in a large two-storey station. This station has purposely been left without a landscape. These trains run by computer control over the entire network on all levels. 87 trains are available (CFF 59 and RhB 28) and 33 are in reserve (CFF 20 and RhB 13). Trains arrive at the upper level by means of a spiral ramp developing a height of 2,4 meters and a length of 134 meters. This track is not visible to the visitors. Trains then arrive at a marshalling yard. With its 16 tracks (13 CFF and 3 RhB), this station allows train traffic to be regulated on the network.
The second level:
The main console controls the circulation of trains serving the station of St. Jakobstadt, the meeting point of 2 companies (CFF and RhB). St. Jakobstadt is revealed with its large 15-track station (12 CFF and 3 RhB). Contrary to the first level, all train movements are executed from the control console. In the background, the foothills of the Kaeserberg can be admired, with the road and track of the RhB criss-crossing the sides of the mountain towards the Graubunden village of Kaeserberg. After the big station the visitor looks onto shunting, loading and unloading tracks and a track service depot. This area is completed by a storage area for hydrocarbons and a landscaping company. In the background can be seen the 4 tracks leading into and out of the station. Running parallel over a distance of 20 meters, the 2 lines eventually separate. One winds its way towards the Monikastein tunnel, the other towards the station of Graberegg. This tourist village is the departure point for boat cruises, coach trips and journeys on the funicular railway.
The third level:
Here we discover the village of Kaeserberg where the architecture of the houses is different, in the style of the canton of Graubunden. This village is the starting point for excursions by train or coach. RhB trains bring passengers, who can travel on to the summit of the Kaeserberg or climb the mountainside along the Waglisbach valley.
Action packed layout
One word AMAZING!!!!
just beautiful
truly the best layout that I have ever seen in my 80+yrs, the track work and overhead work is absolutely
superb and a credit to the people involved in the entire construction of this magnificent layout.
Well done to you all take a bow, and thank you for sharing this magnificent video. TG NZ.
Thank you.
its very beautiful the trains
Trop cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Straordinario!
Detail, detail, detail. Right down to weights on pulleys to retension the overhead electric wires. What different gauges were used in the layout? Just another wonderful detail.
Eminent, but I'm dying for a full cab view tour!
Way
The fabulous layout is spoiled by the ridiculous speeding of some of the train sets
The way you model the real world in so much detail is astounding!
I am looking very happy to watch a very realistic layout.
The realism is astounding. Excellent videography and editing. Thanks very much for posting

I love the cabs view of the ride. Makes you feel like your in the "real deal" as us Americans always say.
Lol the train tilts rather than seeing the tangent frame when it takes bends. Nice job!
Sye Rail
Amazing detail! Excellent work. It looks like a seen out of a 🎥 🍿 movie. Good work 👍👍.
Best model beautiful collection specially thank you
This my favorite European train layout and also the presentation....
Yes, let's go to Switzerland!
Belle vidéo. J'ai tout regardé et je suis pas déçu.
EVEN THE TRACK TILTS!! 10/10
I realy love model trains when I was a little in the 60 70 lionel trains Jack 👽👍
I don't care what anybody says, there is nothing like these layouts anywhere. They are the most realistic true to life train layouts I have ever seen in my life and I was not born yesterday. The camera views the landscaping it is really truly as if you're sitting on a real train. So thankful you share these videos of this craftsmanship. You could probably charge people to watch these videos.
Is the catenary live? There are places where a train is running with the pantograph not in contact with the wire and other places where it looks like the pantograph is touching. With all the superb work that was put into the catenary, it would seem a shame if it isn't live.
Although the model trains touch the catenary, there is electricity.
Truly wonderful 😎🏴
Absolutely brilliant and thrilling!
hi pilentum
nice video i have subscriebed your channel i hope you get sucseed
greetings
oreo gaming
omg this is a beautiful layout...thanks for sharing
OhWow Similar to being the kid in the lolly shop . where do i start as overwhelmed as i am

Thanks, John.
Model trains are so fast like real one 😱😳
Ja, sehr schöne Strecke mit allen Details. Danke für den Schnitt. Ich mag diesen Kanal :)
can we see the control center whos operate all the train traffic ?
Very nice. Love the power lines and everything for the electric cars.
我和我儿子特别喜欢这个视频！
This video is my favorite, and also for my son!
I am looking very happy with a very realistic layout.
Thanks to great workmanship.
It is a complete layout.
Magnificent. The layout and its scenery are superb, as is Pilentum's camera work to show it to us. Thank you!
The only aspect that I find a little detracting from the sense of reality is the instant start-stop of the trains; DCC can program appropriate, realistic acceleration/deceleration, and hopefully that can integrate with the signalling systems.
regarder à o,75 pour la vitesse, c' est bien plus réaliste, comme dans la plupart des cas dans ces vidéos les train roulent beaucoup trop vite… A part ça le réseau est extraordinaire, c' est de ça que je rêvais quand j' étais petit !!!
Ma recommandation: Vous devriez visiter ce réseau ferroviaire!
600 m2, ça ne fait que sept fois la taille de mon logement, j' ai du mal à imaginer !
Eine wunderschöne Anlage mit vielen Details und einem grandiosen Konzept. Allerdings frage ich mich, warum die Züge derart rasen? Sollen irgendwelche Rekorde aufgestellt werden? Mit fällt da spontan eine Carrerabahn ein......
😁🌹😊👌👌👌👍👍
Непередаваемое ощущение простора и свободы... )) Огромное спасибо за труд и талант!!! )))
Спасибо за просмотр!
An excellent layout! The scenery is the best and the super-elevated curves really stand out!
Ma come bello i treni 😃😃🤣
what track system did they ?
Wow, just wow!
Very good model in scale of railway, near in Piemont, Italy, one visit in future.
Si hubiesen omitido el molesto ruido de fondo de los niños y las señoras hubiese sido de agradecer.
Spectacular vídeo!!!
Eine wunderschöne Anlage, die ist einen Besuch wert, alle Achtung den Erbauern.
Well done, it is almost real, only the sound...
Good realistic scenery
Never thougt it was possible.A dream,enthousiasming.But what are these TGV with SNCF and SSB-CFF marks on the same locomotive? Does it exist in the reality?
+PILENTUM the real one is the TGV Lyria this orange SBB TGV is a fake the real is grey white and a bit red
Non ci sono parole per descrivere questa meraviglia. Fantastico!
The only thing missing is graffiti on the rail cars.
There is no graffiti in Switzerland :-)
Magistral !!!, felicidades y muchas gracias por compartir esta maravilla. Saludos desde España.
Sehr schöne Aufnahmen von einer sehr detailreichen und schönen Anlage. Und vor allem ohne nervtötende Musik! Gratuliere
wowww sembra vero!!! che lavoro meraviglioso, sono rimasto a bocca aperta
😁👍👍👍👍😊🌹
Love the tilts on bends. Very nice layout and very realistic, especially on the curves
Wunderschöne Anlage und sehr detailgetreu. Alleine Zusehen macht schon viel Spaß.

Offenbar sollen die Züge neue Geschwindigkeitsrekorde aufstellen...

Очень красиво и интересно. Завидую тем кто это видит
Terrific,a fantastic show ,thanks, Geoff,U.K.
Amazing detail, working signals, lots of rolling stock. Is the catenary system real on this one or just for show?

Can't say I've seen more than one functional cantery system on a layout
Too fast
