Austria 24/05 to 29/05 2001
Another single manned trip, new track Diesel hauled and trying to get my last required narrow gauge route for service train, Gmund to Gross Gerungs (due to close the following week) being the main aims. N ew engines marked with # Although never having anything out of Gmund on the narrow gauge I only needed 1 of their 3 locos, 2095 012 (my last one to clear the class) as I'd quite jammily had both the other 2 on Ober Grafenburg - Wieselburg running in turns (a year apart) after they had received overhauls. I had decided to base myself for 2 nights in a B&B in Schwarzenau, a major junction with 2 branch lines 24km south of Gmund - just in the hope that something might drop, all booked narrow gauge services in the hands of single car Dmu's.
