1443 posts. "Lake Como" is a reverse-Y-shaped lake served by two different train lines - 1. Milan to Como and the to Lugano and Gotthard area; 2. Milan to east coast and then Tirano. As Switzerland has two important north-south (Lotschberg and Gotthard) connections but is poor of east-west connections, itineraries to Como may be through Lucerne FNLr.
