Treeline

Where trains pass

The single crossing loop on the mountain. Upbound and downbound cars meet here on the hour, exchange a bell signal, and part. Drivers have six minutes and a weather word or two; the timetable is built around this meeting.

The school stop

A short platform, a painted bench, and the bench's view down the whole valley. The 08:04 and the 16:22 school carriage stop here with doors on the trail side, which is why the platform fence opens the wrong way and always has.

The trailhead

The Panoramaweg starts forty paces from the platform and drops gently to Falzgrund in two hours of larch and viewpoint. Hikers may ride up with the Shuttle and walk down; the guard announces the trail conditions every morning.
