    We are planning to take golden pass line from Montreux to Interlaken on Jun 8, 2019. Can someone point out on how to find out the schedule of panaroma trains on this route? On MOB site I’m not able to see if a train is with panaroma or classic coaches.

    Also is it too early to reserve seats now? Are there any chance that a train with panaroma coaches will later be changed to train with classic coaches?

    Thanks in advance,

    Faisal

    Hello Faisal,

    You can make reservations for the Golden Pass (http://www.myswissalps.com/go ldenpass) including seat selection at bit.ly/2kaq6Rf. Click the “e” for English language top right of the page. (where it says “Sprachwahl: d i f e”). Then change the class of travel, date of travel and start/end points to suit.

    You can usually reserve up to 3 months in advance. If you book a seat on a Panorama coach you will travel on a panorama coach.

    Some people say it doesn’t matter which sort of train you travel on (panorama, bell epoque or regular) the views are still pretty much the same.

    Hello rockoyster,

    I know the booking site but I need to know which train has panorama. This site doesn’t tell me whether it is panorama, or bell epoque, or regular. Is there a way to find the coach type?

    Thanks,

    Faisal

    Hi Faisal,

    The attached extract from the MOB timetable shows you which trains are which. Gold for Panorama, Purple for Bell Epoque.

    Or you can look up Montreux to Zweisimmen using the SBB Timetable (http://www.myswissalps.com/ti metable). Expand the entries and they will indicate which type the train is denoted by MOB Panoramic or MOB Belle Epoque.
