Have you always dreamed of seeing the puff of steam from a 19th-century train? Hop aboard our 1890 locomotive, still running and a true symbol of the Monte Generoso Railway. A unique experience that fascinates both young and old, bridging the past and present.

The journey will last 2 hours with a short stop in San Nicolao and a second stop in Bellavista, where the water tanks will be refilled and the locomotive staff will check the engine and lubricate its moving parts. Here you can get off the train and take some photos of the landscape and the magnificent Locomotive No. 2 from 1890!
