Steinbach-Grosspertholz
760mm gauge Engerth type 0-8+4T No. 399.02 leaves Steinbach-Grosspertholz in the Waldviertel area of Lower Austria on the 05.05 Gmünd to Gross Gerungs freight on 2 June 1977. The train is commencing the ascent of the 'Little Semmering', which might be something of an exaggeration but certainly involved a stiff climb over the European water-shed to reach the end of the line at Gross Gerungs. Sharp eyes might be able to pick out my Mini parked adjacent to the station building.
