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!

The first „Salzburger Lokalbahn“!
In July 1907, the ‘Rote Elektrische’ (Red Electric) connection from Salzburg Local Railway Station to Drachenloch station was opened, and shortly afterwards the section of the line from the German border was electrified. As early as its first year of operation, 15 passenger cars were in service. However, the city and local railway also always transported goods, especially marble, sand and cement. In the interwar period, a buffet car was even added to increase the attractiveness of the railway.

Back to a new century!
The Graz tramway was electrically powered from 1898. The already uniformly green set dates from the years 1900 to 1912 before the open railcars were modernised, windscreens were installed and the lyre bars gradually gave way to the more reliable scissor bars. First individually, later as a set, the Grazer Tramway brought the people of Graz into the city.

Back to the past!
In February 2025, the narrow-gauge railway returned to HALLING in the form of two blue Mixnitz electric locomotive models. Today, history takes a step back into the past. The narrow-gauge Mixnitz-St. Erhard line, which is only 11 kilometres long, was built in 1913 as part of the development of the magnesite deposits in Breitenau am Hochlantsch. The two electric locomotives ‘Breitenau’ and ‘Hochlantsch’ with the Bo axle arrangement were delivered by AEG in the same year and used for mixed operation of passenger and goods trains.
