Model trams
Leopold HALLING, originally a small toolmaking business in Vienna, developed a keen skill for model making and over decades became the largest manufacturer of model trams in the world. Today, in addition to the impressive range of trams, the company also offers the finest models of underground trains, suburban trains and regional and local railways .
Railway models and accessories
FERRO-TRAIN, originally known as a producer of filigree brass models, has developed steadily. Despite the most modern materials and technology, the traditional handicraft has remained in the production of small series models. In addition to the popular and wide-ranging assortment of rack railway models, the fine, small equipment details for dioramas and layouts round off the portfolio .
HALLING drive technology
The drive systems from HALLING Modelle are becoming more and more popular! In addition to the moderate price, the long service life and the constant availability, it is above all the very wide range of different wheelbases and the possibility of selecting several track gauges and wheel types, that makes HALLING drives the first choice when motorising models .

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.
