The Zillertalbahn (or the Ziller Valley Railway) is a 19-mile narrow gauge railway route from Mayrhofen, the terminus, through the valley to Jenbach which is one of very few stations to have rail lines of three different gauges. The standard gauge rail system, the Zillertalbahn having a 760 mm (2 ft 6 in) narrow gauge and the metre gauge for the Achenseebahn steam powered rack railway which, of course, is another “ Must Visit ” steam railway if you are ever in the area.
The video trip begins at Mayrhofen station and is steam hauled by Zillertalbahn No.4, former Yugoslavian States Railway JDŽ 83-076. At Zell am Ziller Station the train is joined by Michael to add his brilliant typical Austrian Tyrol Volksmusik Österreich entertainment to the most wonderful views that can be seen from the train.
Opened in 1902 the length of the line is 31.7 km (19.7 miles).
It is important to note that some of the Zillertal Railway's redundant rolling stock was donated by the Zillertalbahn railway to the narrow gauge Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway in the UK which has the same gauge of track.
