December 10, 2020. Perfect conditions, bright sun after a snow storm the night before. After half an hour walk in the high snow, I found the right location for the take off of the drone. This is the Landwasser Viadukt in Filimur, Switzerland. Reathian Railway. The Landwasser Viaduct is its highly pronounced curve, which has a radius of 100 mt (328 ft), the minimum used throughout the whole railway. It possesses a height of 65 mt. (213 ft) and a length of 142 mt (466 ft).
The Landwasser Viaduct carries a single railway track. The southeastern abutment of the Landwasser Viaduct is located on a high cliff, and at that point, the tracks lead directly into the 216-mt. (709 ft) long Landwasser Tunnel. The tunnel's entrance is positioned on a vertical rock wall, having been purposefully aligned with the viaduct. It was considered to be a challenging architectural feat of its era, and its construction employed several innovative techniques.Construction of the Landwasser Viaduct commenced during 1901 and was completed during the following year.
