Steyr Valley Railway, Heritage narrow-gauge railway in Steyr-Land District, Austria
The Steyr Valley Railway operates through 19.2 kilometers of Upper Austrian landscapes, connecting the towns of Garsten and Klaus with vintage locomotives.
The railway company received its concession in 1888 and opened the first section to Grünburg in 1889, later extending the line to Agonitz in 1890.
The railway maintains a collection of steam locomotives and open third-class carriages, preserving the traditional railway engineering methods of the 19th century.
The Austrian Society for Railway History operates weekend services during summer months, with tickets available for purchase directly at the Steyr station.
During World War I, the railway implemented a temporary roll-block wagon transfer system between Steyr and Letten for armament production transportation.
