You may have encountered that my recent updates are all about trains, the reason is that i decided to document the last regular service days with nostalgic rolling stock on the Mariazellerbahn. From December 2013 mostly all service there will be made by modern Electric Multiple Units - a positive sign for the future and efficiency of that line but of course less diversity for photographers - it will need weeks to ban the diversity of nostalgic rolling stock in the future on sensor, so i spend days to do that during their last operating days. Spending time there is also a great day outdoor, most of the photo spots need a hike to get there, so enjoy the ride...
