Of all the #Transalpin 's stops, I find Radstadt the most bizarre. A nine-and-a-half-hour Swiss-Austrian EuroCity train journey through the Alps stops at a station with a level crossing that serves 5,000 people. 😳 #SteierMarch

As always, the panoramic car on the EuroCity #Transalpin Graz-Zurich offers great views, even in foggy weather. #SteierMarch

The next morning means it's time for the train back home. After many rides on quirky, short trains, the 'classic' long-distance train is a welcome change. The beloved #Transalpin Graz-Zurich is the last loco-hauled EuroCity train to Switzerland. A nine-and-a-half-hour train ride through the Austrian Alps awaits! 😍
Only drawback: It is operated with fewer second class coaches today again. However, we are lucky enough to sit in a different car. #SteierMarch

Fancying Austrian cuisine, in a Swiss restaurant? Try the #SBB🇨🇭#DiningCar on #EuroCity #Transalpin, a train linking these two countries. The diner is the type of car you will otherwise find on many Swiss InterCity trains, yet the menu and staff are Austrian, the same as on #ÖBB 🇦🇹 #Railjet trains.

Going through the photos taken yesterday while travelling on #EuroCity #164 #Transalpin. The long consist was first hauled by one #ÖBB 🇦🇹 Class 1016/1116 #Taurus electric, then by two of them for the steep gradients on the #Arlberg line. Finally an #SBB🇨🇭#Re460 brought us, on time, into #Zurich HB.

The last run of the rake currently used on #EuroCity #163 #Transalpin. For the last time, it's a mixed consist of ÖBB 🇦🇹 and SBB🇨🇭cars. It includes the last #ÖBB full 40-seat #DiningCar where I enjoy breakfast. From tomorrow's timetable change on, the consist will essentially be composed of #SBB cars.

#Adventkalender2025 - Bild 8 Am 01.06.2025 war ich zwischen Salzkammergut und Ennstal unterwegs. Ziel der Reise war der Sonderzug des Club1018, aber während der Wartezeit habe ich den legendären Transalpin vor dem Grimming abgelichtet. #Ennstalbahn #transalpin #taurus #grimming #steiermark

🚆🇨🇭 The #Transalpin is a classic of train travel in Europe! I took the #EC163 between Zürich HB and Graz Hbf 🇦🇹 with a seat in the panoramic car. This journey through the Austrian Alps 🏔️ is 9h 34min, a great opportunity to enjoy the stunning views and visit the dining car ☕🥐!
