Welcome to Trier in the German state of Rheinland Pfalz. This cabride is a German classic. Just like the Rhine routes, it's a river hugging run through breath taking scenery. There is international interest here as well, the Moselstrecke is the number one route for SNCF freight entering the Federal Republic. In fact we see more Prima locomotives then native RAILION machines on our one hour twenty minute journey.

The run gets really interesting at Punderich where the Mosel run proper begins. Here we take a virtual pause and do a little photograhy from the hills above. At Bullay - an Umweltbahnhof - our train makes its second stop - another great place to watch the thundering freights pass! Then follows the 4.2 km Kaiser Wilhelm tunnel (cut) before Cochem and its fabulous Schloss. The rest of the run is very tight alongside the river through the famous vineyards. It's underneath the high Autobahnbrucke over the Mosel and into Koblenz. Haulage is a DB dual voltage class 181, catch this while you can! There is much off-train camerawork so you can fully enjoy what might be the last year of operation for the class. Filmed from train, land and boat.

The pioneer of mountain railways in Europe. We have made the ascent over the north ramp and reached the summit. Part 4 starts with a look at the Semmering signalling centre then through the tunnel to the south portal and down the line to Mürzzuschlag where the proposed base tunnel would surface. The south ramp is less dramatic than the north but the trains are the same! Bruck an der Mur is the town where the routes to Graz and Slovenia and the route to Austria's southern cities and Italy diverge. We head south towards Graz and visit the narrow gauge mineral railway at Mixnitz. Following the river Mur the Südbahn reaches Graz. We look at the trams and the local railways run by the GKB, and conclude with a visit to Stainz and the museum line - the Stainzerbahn - a 760mm steam worked gem! Narrated RT 95 mins Published April 2008.

Welcome to southern Austria. While the Gotthard railway links the north sea ports of Antwerp and Rotterdam with Italy (Milan and Genoa in particular) the Brenner links the north German ports of Hamburg, Bremerhafen and Bremen with Italy (Verona and points south). The Brenner, like the Semmering, can claim to have had a pass in operation before the 18th century. The railway that followed was built after the Semmering, but before the Gotthard. It was constructed without a base tunnel and so reaches 1,300m at the summit and suffers gradients of 3%. In terms of freight traffic the line is only exceeded by the Gotthard, and ties with the Semmering at 10 million tons a year. Over half of this is inter-modal. Traction is: OBB classes 1016, 1044, 1116 (Taurus) 1144 and 1142. Traction is changed (still!) at Brennero / Brenner except for an elite number of Euroloks from Siemens and Bombardier. We start at the lovely Tyrolian city of Innsbruck, explore the city and its trams and ultra modern Hungerburgbahn funicular and the "mountain" tram to Fulpmes. We conclude at Brenner / Brennero where we watch the RoLa trains being loaded. The mountain countryside is spectacular and our Austrian cameraman knows where to get the best views!
