Bahn Im Bild 74

I've got myself another Bahn Im Bild, this time No. 74 'Schmalspurbahnen in Karnten'. It's a photo album in the usual Bahn Im Bild style, all black and white photos from the 1950s to 1960s on two of the lesser known narrow gauge lines in Austria, the Gurktalbahn and the Vellachtalbahn.

Some lovely shots of trains in the landscape, as well as plenty of roll-wagen action! Just the spur on I need with the garden line again...

  1. Talking of rollwagons, have you seen this:

    Rollwagen action at 4.40 to 5.20.
    And following your lead again on book buying ( I bought the two small albums by Trevor Rowe on European narrow gauge) I now need to search out Bahn im Bild 211...
