The St. Gallen–Trogen railway line, or Trogenerbahn (TB), is a long railway line in Switzerland. It links the city of St. Gallen,in the canton of St. Gallen, with Speicher and Trogen, both in the canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden. Passenger service on the line now forms part of the St. Gallen S-Bahn, branded as the S21.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 St. Gallen–Speicher–Trogen )〕〔Buckley, Richard (2000).

ISBN 0-948106-27-1.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 S-Bahn St.Gallen Map )〕 The line was opened in 1903, and was built as a rural electric tramway. Whilst much of the line has been upgraded, this is still apparent in the long stretches of roadside track, and in its exit from St. Gallen over street track. With a gradient of 7.6%, it is the steepest narrow-gauge adhesion railway in Switzerland.〔 The line is owned and operated by the Appenzell Railways company, which also operates several other railway lines in the two Appenzell cantons.〔 == History == The line was opened on the 10 July 1903 by the Trogenerbahn AG company, with its headquarters in Trogen. From its terminus at St. Gallen railway station to the Brühltor, the line used the tracks of the St. Gallen city tramway.〔 In 2006 the company was merged into the Appenzell Railways.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「St. Gallen–Trogen railway line」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
