Prater Liliputbahn, Narrow gauge railway in Prater park, Vienna, Austria
The Prater Liliputbahn operates on a 381-millimeter gauge track, stretching nearly 4 kilometers through the green spaces of Prater park.
The railway started operations on May 1, 1928, as a commemoration of composer Franz Schubert's death centenary, with an initial track length of 2 kilometers.
This miniature railway connects four main stations: Prater Central Station, Schweizerhaus-Luftburg, Rotunde, and Ernst Happel Stadium, each representing different aspects of Viennese life.
The railway runs from March through November, with adult tickets priced at 6 euros for a round trip and 14.50 euros for a day pass.
The railway maintains its original steam locomotives from 1928 while incorporating modern diesel engines that run on recycled vegetable oil since 2010.
