World's Oldest | Steam Locomotive | Cogwheel | Mountain Railway | Vertical Boiler | Rigi Bahn Switzerland LOK7 – Built in 1873, Locomotive No. 7 is a true gem in the history of the world's railways and a crown jewel of Switzerland's Mount Rigi Railways collection. It is not only Switzerland’s or Europe’s, but the World’s oldest and only operational steam locomotive with a rack-and-pinion (cogwheel) system and a vertical boiler. Remarkably, on select special days, it still roars to life and climbs an altitude difference of about 1,250 meters (0.78 miles) before reaching the Mt. Rigi Kulm station. It's hard to believe that such a locomotive remains operational—which is exactly why any insight into it is not to be missed. To celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Arth-Goldau–Mt. Rigi railway line, this historic locomotive was brought out of the workshop to lead the way to Mt. Rigi, accompanied by other vintage locomotives and historic carriages from the Mount Rigi Railways collection. In this video, we present key technical information about this remarkable locomotive and show how it is prepared at the Arth-Goldau workshop ahead of its special or commemorative uphill journeys to Mt. Rigi.
