News 2025.05 - Cog Railway

New rack railway carriages!

As promised, we are replenishing our stocks of the fine, small rack railway models from FERRO-TRAIN! But that's not all, we have also taken the liberty of expanding the range. In response to popular demand, there are now also two structurally different observation carriages to match the ‘Type Schafbergbahn’ passenger coach.

All three carriages are painted in a uniform purple-red colour with white stripes and would not cut a bad figure even on the most venerable route from Lake Wolfgangsee to the Schafbergspitze. Carriages numbers 5 and 6 are of wooden construction and are equipped with the new basic weight, which allows all new carriage models to run much more smoothly on the often quite rough cog railway lines of this world thanks to their low centre of gravity.

We want to give a nice present to all those who decide quickly:

20€ shopping voucher per two wagons!

Choose two wagons in stock from the ‘Schafberg’ range and we will credit you € 20.00 for your next purchase from us. The voucher is not applicable to the order itself and no cash redemption is possible, but if you take four wagons you will receive € 40.00 in credit! The promotion is valid from 28 May to 04 June 2025 inclusive!

    The first electric trams! The first Vienna tram line to be electrified by the Vienna Tramway Company (WT) was the ‘Northern Transversal Line’. This was a combination of sections previously operated as horse-drawn tramways, which Viennese people today associate with parts of lines 2, 5, or O. The prerequisite for the conversion was the construction of the Leopoldstadt power station, which initially supplied the necessary energy.

    Improved new edition of a legend! When it became apparent in the 1970s that freight and passenger transport on the StLB would have to be separated in order to reduce journey times, the management of the state railways decided to develop a railcar with diesel-electric power transmission. The contract for its manufacture was awarded to the Vienna-based company Knotz, which at that time was known for producing custom designs in rail vehicle construction, even in small quantities. The first railcar was delivered to the Murtalbahn in the fall of 1980. Many more examples of this vehicle family were to follow until 1999, going to the StLB, the Zillertalbahn, and the ÖBB.
