News 2024.12 - Third Advent

Mariazeller Advent!

The quiet time of the year is almost over and we are looking forward to the few days after the festive season that we don't have to fill with all kinds of hectic activities - the unofficial festive days of the company holidays! Speaking of unofficial: the Christmas wagon of the third Advent was never actually an official Christmas wagon.

The model of the “Mariazell Advent” was first launched many, many moons ago by Josef von Lunz am See. The blue ÖBB B4iph/s 3154-7 with the invitation to the ‘Mariazell Advent’ was actually used on the Mariazell Railway, which makes it the guest of honour among the Christmas carriages!

On the occasion of today's Advent wreath, we would like to offer it to you once again at a greatly reduced price. By the way, there's a very special surprise next Sunday! Anyone who has been watching the last few weeks will already be able to guess what is hiding behind the fourth candle. But this much we can already reveal: we've already run out of the former Weihnachtswagerl!

    2025-02-20

    ÖBB 052/S - The apiary! After ÖBB had closed the auxiliary workshop in Obergrafendorf and the maintenance of the narrow-gauge wagons was transferred to the main workshop in St. Pölten, there was a lack of a suitable shunting locomotive there in the spring of 1960. With the tried and tested confidence that makeshift is the longest lasting solution, a shunting tractor was quickly cobbled together from existing old materials. The engine came from a compressor, the gearbox from a standard-gauge tow train. The frame and the superstructure were built by themselves, based on the narrow-gauge wagons. After the ÖBB 052/S was taken out of service, the locomotive body was sold and served as an apiary in the Pielach Valley for many years!

    The first trams in Graz! The year was 1909, just four to five years after the last horse-drawn trams had been converted to electric multiple units and sidecars, and Grazer Waggon- und Maschinen-Fabriks AG (formerly Johann Weitzer) had just been incorporated! Its first prototypes, the railcars 71 to 76, went into operation after thorough testing, all the lines licensed at the time were completed and the Graz Tramway Company (GTG) received the first electric tramway sets specially manufactured for Graz.

    The return of the narrow gauge! After two years of sorrow, narrow gauge is finally returning to HALLING! It is with great pleasure that we can present the first two motorised H0e models! The approximately 11 km long Mixnitz-St. Erhard narrow gauge line was built in 1913 as part of the development of the magnesite deposits in Breitenau am Hochlantsch. The electric locomotives ‘E1’ and ‘E2’ with the Bo axle arrangement were used for the mixed operation of passenger and goods trains.

    A little piece of k.u.k. history! After the revolution of 1848, Venice was no longer acceptable to the Austrian navy as the main war harbour. The choice was between expanding Trieste, which already had an efficient commercial harbour, or the small fishing town of Pola, which at the time only had around 900 inhabitants, but an almost perfect natural harbour.
