Milan to Zermatt by train with a change in Brig
A traveler named anasilva is planning a trip from Milano to Zermatt and wants clarification about the train change in Brig. They are unsure if 'Bring' and 'Brig Bahnhofplatz' are the same station and if seven minutes is enough time to switch platforms.
- Brig is the main train station for SBB, while Brig Bahnhofplatz is for Matterhorn-Gotthard Bahn trains to Zermatt.
- You can easily cross the street from Platform 1 to reach Platforms 11, 12, and 14 in just seven minutes.
- Seven minutes is sufficient time for the platform change.

Hi anasilva,
Brig is the main station where the SBB (Swiss Railways) trains arrive and depart. Brig Bahnhofplatz is the station across the road used by the Matterhorn-Gotthard Bahn trains, including the one to Zermatt.
Your train from Milano will arrive on Platform 1 in Brig, which is adjacent to the street you need to cross to get to the platforms for Zermatt.
You just walk out into the street adjacent to Platform 1, from where you will see 3 platforms across the road (Platforms 11, 12 and 14) and head towards them. I have attached a few photos to help you visualise it. Seven minutes is plenty of time.
