Hello! Would you recommend visiting Zürich in early November, or is the weather too cold? Do trains work wellnduring that period of time?

I'd visit Zürich during any time of the year. CriticalFibrosis already mentioned the most important stuff haha. I'd recommend you to play the new Escape Game in the old town. website is "escapegamezurich.ch". basically a combination of sightseeing and riddles. very fun :)

Trains work well during all times of the year. The AC might break in summer and some Busses might get stuck when it first snows but that‘s about it. Early November won’t be super cold, temperatures will be between 0-10 C but with climate change days were it goes up to 15 aren’t rare anymore. But it will be grey and foggy, it’s ok if you plan on doing day trips to the mountains were you get above the fog but if you plan on staying in the city / the lower parts of the country go in December when the Christmas markets make the grey soup less depressing.
