In this video you can enjoy the cab ride - train drivers view between Graz - Austria and Maribor - Slovenia in 4K/60 frames per second.
This journey will take us along the Southern Railway from Graz to the Austria Slovenia national border and then along the Spielfeld-Straß–Trieste railway to Maribor.
The Southern Railway is a railway in Austria that runs from Vienna to Graz and the border with Slovenia at Spielfeld via Semmering and Bruck an der Mur. Along with the Spielfeld-Straß–Trieste railway (lying largely in Slovenia), it forms part of the Austrian Southern Railway that connected Vienna with Trieste, the main seaport of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, via Ljubljana. A main obstacle in its construction was getting over the Semmering Pass over the Northern Limestone Alps. The twin-track, electrified section that runs through the current territory of Austria is owned and operated by Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) and is one of the major lines in the country.
The Spielfeld–Trieste railway is a double-track, electrified main line in parts of Austria, Slovenia and Italy. It was built as a section of the Austrian Southern Railway. It runs from Spielfeld-Straß over the Austrian-Slovenian border at the Municipality of Šentilj, continuing via Maribor, Ljubljana and the Slovenian karst to the Adriatic port of Trieste, today in Italy.
On the video (44:59) we can see the construction of the new rail line between the border with Austria and Maribor. The 3,73 km section was opened for traffic on 15 August 2023. A 1530-metre long tunnel was constructed together with the 912,6-metre-long Pesnica viaduct, the longest railway viaduct in the country. Trains will now travel at speeds of up to 120 km/h, instead of 80 km/h. The previous tunnel and viaduct were built in 1846.
