Narrow Gauge Railway Society
Since the formation of our Society in 1951, interest in narrow gauge railways has grown in leaps and bounds, and this has been reflected in the expansion of our membership. What was envisaged as being a small correspondence group of specialist enthusiasts has grown to a large international society with a truly international outlook.
Our membership page expands on what we offer members. The well produced regular publications issued to all members cover narrow gauge lines at home and overseas, past and present, the current preservation scene, miniature railways, and the development of all forms of steam, diesel or electric motive power. We also maintain a most extensive reference library with an efficient postal service.

Schmalspurlexikon Schweiz - Rail-Info Switzerland
Switzerland's rail network is one of the world's most densely concentrated rail systems. Due to the extremely mountainous terrain, railway engineers opted for the more economical narrow gauge construction; the distance between the rails is less than the standard 1435 mm. Some of these railways (such as the BLM) are simply links between two villages, while others handle the traffic of an entire canton (RhB.) Some, such as the JB were designed as tourist carriers, while others are "international", crossing into other nations (MC.) Because of this large variety of design and purpose, detailed descriptions of many of them will be found on this website.
