Through a gap in the trees, a dramatic view of the mighty viaduct spanning the Sitter River, with one of the Bodensee-Toggenburg Bahn trains just disappearing on its route between Zurich and the Bodensee. The Bodensee, or Lake Constance, is a lake bordered by Switzerland, Germany and Austria, and here we have an Italian poster promoting train travel within Switzerland. The Bodensee-Toggenburg line was built in 1910. Swiss Tourist 95.
