Remarks & Notes |
Top of the 1798 meter high Rigi mountain, called Rigi Kulm. A 96-meter-high, freestanding reinforced concrete tower built from 1995 to 1997 serves as the antenna support for the Rigi transmitter of Swisscom and has a publicly accessible visitor platform at a height of 6 meters. This broadcast tower replaced an older, 50-meter-high broadcast tower with a tube slot antenna (called the "Rigi Needle") built in 1964. Below the station you can see the red train 1127 from Vitznau with railcar BDhe 4/4 # 5 and 3 cars. In the station is the red railcar Bhe 2/4 # 1 and two blue trains with railcar and cab car of the former Arth-Rigi-Bahn (ARB), which arrived some minutes ago from Arth Goldau. The view is from the top of 1659 meter high Rotstock. |
