In the midst of canyon country, Robbers Roost, near the town of Green River, was both a hideout and base for Butch Cassidy, leader of the Wild Bunch Gang, a thieving group infamous for its train and bank robberies.
The train stops twice en route, at Eigerwand and Eismeer stations, both with phenomenal views across wild mountains and crevassed glacial ice, before cresting Jungfraujoch.
