Hello All,
I'm getting ready for my trip on the Bernina express on June 18th. We will be riding from Chur to Tirano arriving in Tirano at 12:49pm. I was planning on taking the train on to Varenna but I understand the train will be down for maintenance. I'm trying to find information on the bus that will take us instead. I will be travelling with my husband and my parents and we will all have a suitcase with us. Is traveling on the bus going to be problem for us ? Do I need to book tickets in advance ? Is the travel time the same or should I expect to be on the bus longer.
Thanks in advance for your help.

No need to book the replacement bus in advance. The bus should have a luggage bay underneath. Travel time is likely a bit longer as the bus has traffic to contend with as well as detours off the highway to pick up and drop passengers near the train stations at intermediate towns.
