    Good Morning, EuroNight

    The clocktower tells: About 1 hour late was the very long EuroNight from Rome and Milan (joined at Venice), the only passenger train needing a banker (1142) on Semmering. Look at the cute little window on the roof of the church! ;)

    Morning Curve

    Winter morning between Gloggnitz and Schlglmhl where the Northern ramp of Semmering railway starts. This one took me by surprise as I walked between spots, but it wasn't that bad a spot itself... ;)

  15. Semmering Panorama II

    Semmering Panorama II

    InterCity from Zagreb passing the village of Breitenstein. Here you can clearly see how the builder of the Semmering Railway, Carl Ritter von Ghega, planned it to display trains in front of the scenery. On a purely technological point of view a lot of the artificial structures and the route...
