The Polybahn in Zurich is the most unique train ride I've ever experienced.
The Polybahn is a train on a steep incline that takes riders up and down the hilly Swiss city.
At just over $1, it's an affordable and historic travel experience with scenic views.

I've traveled 5,120 miles on trains in the US, Canada, France, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, and Germany.
