Switzerland Tour towards Luzern Railway Stations

While
travelling from Zurich airport railway station to Luzern railway
station by a double decker train,we were astonished to find a tea
vendor rolling in the coach with a trolley,selling hot/cold
beverages.The hot coffee was beig retailed at CHF 3,equivalent to
about Rs 150.

While the train
was kept spot clean and the quality of seating system was
excellent,the train virtually travelled without any noise or
jerking-It was as if we were travelling over a smooth highway on a
mercedes benz car.The intermediate stations were announced in English
and the local language and the stopover was for a very bried
timeperiod of 15-20 seconds.The train coach gate would only open if
there is a passenger wishing to disembark or a passenger at the
platform wanting to board the train.Any one of them would press a
red switch located nearby the gates,both inside and outside the
coach.

The train
passed through the city of Zurich and different kinds of residential
units,office blocks could be seen.After it left Zurich,the landscape
changed to give us a glimpse of the real beauty of Switzerland.The
green cover alongwith beautiful lakes captured our attention.

Finally,the
train rolled into the last and final station of Luzern.

The
station complex was a big building with underground level for shops
,ticketing offices etc.We transferred our luggage onto the trolleys
kept at the station by paying charges and consulted our google map
for the exact direction to our hotel.As we came out and crossed the
streets,we could see the traffic was very disciplined,with seperate
lanes for even cycles also.

It
took us hardly 10 minutes to reach our hotel by walking and the check
was a very smooth affair and in next 10 minutes,we were resting in
our rooms.
