"When a train goes through a tunnel and it gets dark, you don't throw away the ticket and jump off. You sit still and trust the engineer."

Swiss engineering is second to none. I love it that trains are so accessible to you. And if you miss your train, another one is coming. Enjoy the beautiful ride.

My father, his father and grandfather were engineers. While he would have been thrilled if I'd become one (one brother did), he at least gave me a thorough grounding and appreciation for what goes into such accomplishments. Thank you for sharing this as you did, and for another rabbit hole to dive down. :-)

Hope you made it out of the rabbit hole again! Yes, I don't think engineers get enough appreciation. We need that kind of innovative thinking right now. The problem solvers. Thanks Zoë!

You are so right! Much can only be appreciated by walking or getting out to view. Well done!🤔

This is great and you explain so well! I, too, must meditate while traveling via tunnel.
