Fact sheet: Jungfrau Railways – BLM, BOB and WAB

The Jungfrau Railways are at the heart of the transport network in the Bernese Oberland – and an indispensable part of national and international tourism in the region. They give visitors from all over the world access to some of Switzerland’s most beautiful and well-known Alpine landscapes, including the Jungfrau, the Eiger and the Mönch.

The railways – consisting of the BLM (Lauterbrunnen–Mürren Railway), the BOB (Bernese Oberland Railway) and the WAB (Wengernalp Railway) – connect centrally located tourism centres such as Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald, offering a unique blend of mobility, comfort and panoramic views.

The partnership between the Jungfrau Railway Group and Livesystems creates additional opportunities to advertise products and services specifically to an international audience. With 220 digital DOOH screens in over 40 carriages, the platform is ideal for advertising messages of any kind along the highly frequented tourist routes.
