T104DVD
Magnificent and colorful program closely examining the Austrian Federal railways on their 150th anniversary jubilee year, with special focus on several steam lines and celebrations. This unique film takes us around the nation's iron roads in a comprehensive study of the OBB network, from the 'schnellzug' corridors between the larger cities, to the isolated non-electrified railways of the Wachau, and even to the unique narrow gauge rack steam lines reaching towering mountain summits...all in a spectacular and entertaining broadcast quality audio-visual extravaganza. Special care and interest is devoted to the breathtaking Austrian landscape, from its charming mountain villages to its beautiful gothic and baroque cultural centers. Several jubilee steam train tours hilight the OBB commemorative celebrations, including a double header steam 'Krieglok' BR52 special closely followed from medioeval Krems to Spitz.
