Austria - Gmunden Strassenbahn

A trip on the Gmunden, Austria historic streetcar on a sleepy Sunday morning in Sept., 2012. This narrow-gauge gem runs 1.5 miles from the center of Gmunden, up the hill to the train station, climbing about 262 ft. in its short run. From Wikipedia: The Gmunden Tramway (Straßenbahn Gmunden or Gmundner Straßenbahn), located in Gmunden, Austria, is the shortest and oldest remaining tram system in Austria. It is operated by Stern & Hafferl, which was founded in 1893. The tramway was opened on 13 August 1894. It is 2.3 km long. The line's maximum gradient of 9.6% makes it one of the world's steepest surviving adhesion-only tram lines.
