| The Bernese Oberland Railway (BOB) connects Interlaken, (Interlaken Ost railway station) with Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen. Two train compositions are usually coupled together to travel to Zweilütschinen where they are then split.
One train travels to Grindelwald, the other to Lauterbrunnen. The aim of the "Railway 2000" concept is to provide a shuttle service. At present most train compositions must be changed at each terminus so that the electric railcar is always at the front of the train. The railway began operating 1890, and was electrified in 1914. From the introduction of the 1999 timetable, a newly constructed 2.5km section of dual track between Zweilütschinen and Wilderswil allows trains to pass without one having to wait on a side-line. This means that a half-hour timetable can be operated with only five train compositions. The Bernese Oberland Railway (BOB) now operates as a modern, straight-track shuttle service providing access to the tourist centres of the Eiger, Mönch & Jungfrau Region.
