in Vernayaz, Switserland.
Special kind of rails: an extra rail in the middle with "teeth" allowing for a better grip. Necessary for overcoming the steep gradient of the tracks.

This small locomotive was working on the rail yard. Motivation for the picture was the logo on the side, VR. Acronym VR-virtual reality is of course hot topic in the IT world. Therefore it's quite understandable that it is used, but what is not cool, is that this logo itself is used by Chinese VR goggle manufacturer.
And now Indian logistic company has copied the exact logo version of VR used before this green version. Not cool, not cool at all. By the way, VR means in this context Valtion Rautatiet, State Railways, 160 years old company operating trains and railway network in Finland.
