Since 1 January 2003 (2003-01-01), the BVZ has been owned and operated by the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB), following a merger between the BVZ and the Furka Oberalp Bahn (FO).
Due to Zermatt's car free status, the MGB has a frequent special shuttle train service between Zermatt and Täsch, where people travelling to and from Zermatt by combustion-engined vehicles are required to park their vehicles. For most of most days, this service operates at 20-minute intervals. The MGB also operates regional services between Zermatt and Brig via Täsch at hourly intervals.[1]
Every day, several Glacier Express trains, which are operated at this point by the MGB, pass through Täsch, but do not stop there.
