Lesce Bled, Faak am See, Neuhaus an der Gail, Arnoldstein, Pontebba, Villach-Warmbad

So, today I heading to Austria

At Lesce Bled station I can spot some trains

The Tarvisio–Ljubljana Railway was opened in 1870 as part of the Austro-Hungarian Rudolfsbahn railway network. Today, only the Slovenian section between Jesenice and Ljubljana is still open to traffic, as part of the main line between Ljubljana and Villach in Austria; the cross-border section between Jesenice and Tarvisio has been closed to traffic since 1967 (Italian part) and 1969 (Slovenian part).

Lake Bled is one of Slovenias main tourist destinations

The railway here has a single track

Turkish goods heading to either Koper or Trieste

Also diesel locomotives are in use, this one was very noisy

After passing through Karawanken tunnel I'm in Austria

All 4 countries are served by this train

It's a bit crowded today

Switching from Rosen Valley railway to Rudolf railway

The freight traffic between Austria and Italy is also frequent

This is what happened, I got on a highway and missed my turn, ended up in Italy, in Pontebba

Same train, with different locomotive

New trucks on the train

The last stop for today is at Villach-Warmbad

Here it is possible to spot trains from both Salzburg and Vienna, that are heading to either Jesenice or Tarvisio
