On every train journey, every mountain offers a different motif every day: Fabio Peng does not limit himself to driving the trains on the journey through the mountains of Graubünden. The train driver is an avid photographer, so he always has his camera with him. Again and again on his travels he discovers a new perspective of the spectacular Swiss high mountains and captures them spontaneously.
The Rhaetian Railway is then the perfect mobile photo studio for him. His photos are no longer just his private hobby. With the pictures he has also built up a follower community on Twitter. The fans follow him enthusiastically, because he always finds new perspectives on the train journeys and captures them in photographs. He is currently particularly enthusiastic about the snowy winter landscapes, through which he often steers the first train of the day. His fascination never wanes.
One of Fabio Peng's favorite routes is a ride on the Bernina Express. The panoramic train runs from Chur via the Upper Engadine to Northern Italy. During the journey on the highest railway line in Europe, the train overcomes 55 tunnels and 196 bridges. The most famous of them is the imposing Landwasser Viaduct. After traveling further through the helical tunnels of the Albula Valley, the Bernina Express reaches sophisticated St. Moritz. From there it snakes its way up to Ospizio Bernina at 2.253 meters above sea level. Before reaching the destination of Tirano, the panoramic train crosses the well-known circular viaduct at Brusio. The viaduct elegantly winds 360 degrees, lengthening the route to accommodate the difference in altitude. The famous section between St. Moritz, Valposchiavo and Tirano is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Rhaetian Railway.
Fabio Peng observes the Swiss landscape from the driver's cab, always with an eye on the next spectacular photo. His video camera runs on the tripod while he is driving to record it. During his breaks at the train stations, the camera naturally comes outside to take pictures of “his” locomotive.
The frozen Lago Bianco is a special attraction. The reservoir owes its name to the white meltwater from the glaciers (Photo: Fabio Peng, @calandamountain).

It continues through the Albula Valley with its almost mystical winter landscape. Next stop: St. Moritz, the fashionable mountain resort that attracts the jet set and is also a popular training location for athletes (Photo: Fabio Peng, @calandamountain). 
Immediately afterwards, one of the absolute highlights of the Bernina Express awaits in the snow-covered Albula Valley. The Landwasser Viaduct, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008, is Graubünden's landmark (Photo: Fabio Peng, @calandamountain).
