Switzerland has a [[Railways in Switzerland|very dense rail network]], both standard and narrow gauge. The overwhelming majority of railways, built [[History of rail transport in Switzerland|between the mid-19th and early 20th century]], are still in regular operation today and electrified, a major exception being the [[Furka Steam Railway]], the longest unelectrified line in the country and one of the [[List of highest railways in Europe|highest rail crossings in Europe]]. Many railway companies, [[List of mountain railways in Switzerland|especially mountain railways]], provide services with well-preserved historic trains for tourists, for instance the [[Rigi Railways]], the oldest rack railway in Europe, and the [[Pilatus Railway]], the steepest in the world. Two railways, the [[Albula Railway]] and the [[Bernina Railway]], have been designated as a [[World Heritage Site]], although they are essentially operated with modern rolling stock. Due to the availability of hydroelectric resources in the Alps, the Swiss network was electrified earlier than in the rest of Europe.<ref>{{HDS|013845|Electrification}}</ref> Some of the most emblematic pre-World War II electric locomotives and trains are the [[Crocodile (locomotive)|Crocodile]], notably used on the [[Gotthard Railway]],<ref>[https://news.sbb.ch/fr/article/93396/defile-de-la-crocodile-pour-le-plus-grand-plaisir-du-public Défilé de la «Crocodile» pour le plus grand plaisir du public] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210508221510/https://news.sbb.ch/fr/article/93396/defile-de-la-crocodile-pour-le-plus-grand-plaisir-du-public |date=2021-05-08 }}, [[Swiss Federal Railways]]</ref> and the [[Red Arrow (Swiss train)|Red Arrow]].
