Genève / Geneva to Brig / Brigue by train

The regular service of trains on this route is by Swiss IR services (express trains with no restaurant cars), but the international EC trains between Geneve and Milano or Venezia also come this way.
They're faster and have restaurants, but are less frequent and that speed tends to be available at a higher price.
