I just found this on the myswitzerland.com website:
I removed the picture, since it simply repeats the changing one from the website.
Where are the bridge rectifiers installed? [;)]

Not now.
You mean like this?
A numberof Swiss railway lines use electric locomotives that pull pwer from overhead caentary but use a cog drive system with the cneter “third” rail being the cog drive line.
I remember seeing the “third rail” on the line shown in the Clint Eastwood flick Eiger Sanction.
No, it wasn’t a rack. It was a perfectly normal stock rail, screwed to the center of the ties exactly like the rails on either side, at the end of a terminal track.
Dual gauge line?
I doubt it. A centered rail implies a gauge of about 685 millimeters.
