What's the rail pass you can get as an international for travel in Switzerland? Anyone have a link for it? Or know the details?

My experience is that for travel to Engadin the cost difference between a Transfer Ticket and a regular return ticket is negligible.  If you buy your train tickets on arrival at Zurich airport then there is no language problem as all the ticketing staff there speak English.   Personally I prefer to pay out as late as possible.

If you are planning on travelling a lot in Switzerland then you can buy a Train Card that allows you to buy heavily discounted tickets, but its not really relevant if you are only making one trip a year.  Sad
