In my album KISSing Goodbye , in March, I stated that probably I was going to be away from railfanning and photographing trains for a long time; it is a good thing it did not end up like that. I had to go on a few trips, all without any human contact, for work-related reasons, but I did not ride an actual train until the events depicted in this travelogue, our two visits to the Höllentalbahn. The name (Hell-valley Railway) accurately depicts the year 2020. The album is going to contain three videos, one of the depot, one of the power station of the line, and one showing interior and exterior shots of the railway itself. If you are more into videos, you can find these clips here on YouTube (please subscribe!), but most of the historical and local information will be written in this article.

In this gallery I could use photos taken by Viktor Székely and Norbert Horváth, that I would like to thank again here. Since this means a lot of photos, some detail shots are missing from this collection. If you do not want to miss anything, please click All photos in the top-right corner of this page.

At the foot of the Semmering Railway (Semmeringbahn) , the little railcar is waiting patiently for a connection, as it had done for about half a century in its golden age. Nowadays railjet trains do not stop here, but prior, due to the valley locomotives being changed to mountain locos, all trains could stop. Still, the Höllentalbahn, forking away from the Südbahn at Payerbach-Reichenau station, was not originally concieved for passenger traffic.

The Hirschwang paper mill opened its electrified narrow-gauge industrial railway in 1918 with the 1903 locomotives used on the construction of the Karawanken-Tunnel. These are considered to be the oldest electric locomotives to be in service nowadays. The mining railway body was extended to form today's rolling garden-sheds.

We arrived by car to Hirschwang, the current terminus of the narrow gauge railway. This is where you can find the depot. It connects to the line with an interesting set of points. The industrial railway was expanded when the Raxseilbahn between Raxalpe and Hirschwang was completed in 1926.

As it is usual with Alpine railway construction, there were numerous plans and ideas for the construction of a railway line in the area. The Firma Neusiedler AG planned to build a standard-gauge railway from the Südbahn to Hirschwang and a branch line to the village of Prien, and to support the construction work a material railway of 76-cm-gauge was built. Some of the embankments of the standard-gauge railway, as well as the boring of the 428 m long Artzbergtunnel were finished during World War 1, but the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy made it imposible to continue. Of the tunnel, only the lower part of the arch was finished, but the tunnel was closed and filled, the legend holds, that with military equipment still sheltered inside.

Originally the material railway was built with a temporary, 3 m high catenary. As the line was converted into a local railway the overhead wires were completely rebuilt and to a greater height. The three locomotives used were similar to those used in mines and came from the construction of the Karawanken-tunnel, a railway tunnel between the regions of Carinthia and Carniola (currently: Jesenice, Slovenia). The locomotives were modified for the higher overhead wire and served the paper mill built by the forestry with 24 freight cars acquired from the military narrow-gauge railways (Heeresfeldbahnen). Some time later, for the purpose of tourist traffic, two railcars and four trailers were bought from the Grazer Waggonfabrik; timetabled passenger services started in September, 1926.

In 1964 the TW1 and TW2, with the trailers, was given over to the Zillertalbahn , but in 2003 TW1 and a trailer retorned to the hollental. Since the Zillertalbahn used all cars as trailers, an excessive rebuilding was necessary.

After visiting the depot and the electric plant (Umformerwerk) we set out to take photos of the railcar along the track. First on the promenade section on the banks of the Schwarza river, where the green beauty caught the attention of the locals as well.

It is often seen nowadays that a second front helper is used instead of banking the medium-heavy freight trains on the Semmering Railway. Banking did not completely disappear though.

The dirt road leading here from Payerbach is extremely difficult to ride and the overpass above the railway is closed for safety reasons. It is advised to arrive here from Reichenau, that little detour is a lot better, paved and convenient road.

We managed to take this many photos at our second take at photographing the Höllentalbahn. I would like to thank to Mr Norbert Horváth and Mr Viktor Székely for providing photos and videos for this travelogue, as well as the ÖGLB volunteer crews of the railway for giving out information, telling us where it is best to go and helping out in the production of all this imagery immensely. The fact that they spoke English, as our German is unfortunately quite poor, is something we can be really grateful for.

If you would like to help out the ÖGLB in maintaining their two narrow-gauge heritage railways, you can send money to the following account: Bankverbindung: Raiffeisenbank Region Eisenwurzen Bankleitzahl: 32939 Kontonummer: 621 003 BIC: RLNWATWW939 IBAN: AT 72 32939 000 00621 003.

Before leaving this awsome railway entirely let's have a look at the external video shots on the trains running on the Höllentalbahn. If so far you haven't started to like the route, the sound of the railcar going nye-nye-nye-nye-nye is definitely going to do the magic...
