The Schafbergbahn is a rack railway from the end of the 19th century. It is climbing up from Lake Wolfgang to the mountain station right below the peak of the Schafberg (sheep mountain, 1780 m) in Austria’s Salzkammergut. At least one of the old steam engines from 1894 is still running.
Building of this rack railway started in April 1892 and it took only one year to complete it. If you like to know more about that very special railroad please visit www.schafbergbahn.at/main/indexenglish.htm
