- In this video you can enjoy the cab ride - train driver's view on the Franz-Josefs-Bahn from the border town Gmünd NÖ to Vienna (Wien Franz-Josefs-Bahnhof) in 4K/60 frames per second.
The Franz-Josefs-Bahn (lit. 'Emperor Franz Joseph railway line') is a standard gauge railway line in the Austrian state of Lower Austria. It runs 163.1 kilometres (101.3 mi) from Vienna, the Austrian capital, to the border with the Czech Republic at Gmünd. The Emperor Franz Joseph originally built the line and is today owned and operated by Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB).
The southern terminus of the line is at Wien Franz-Josefs-Bahnhof, in the Alsergrund district of Vienna. From there, the line follows the west bank of the Donaukanal to Wien Heiligenstadt and a junction with the Suburban line and the Donauuferbahn. From there, the line follows the Danube River, finally crossing it at Tulln an der Donau. At Tulln, it has a junction with the Tullnerfeld railway line. From Tulln, the line runs west-northwest towards Gmünd on the Czech border. At Gmünd, the line crosses the Lužnice river and continues to České Velenice, where it splits into the České Velenice-České Budějovice railway line [de] and České Velenice-Praha railway line.
The Franz-Josefs-Bahn hosts primarily Vienna S-Bahn and regional traffic. The S40 operates at hourly intervals between Wien Franz-Josefs-Bahnhof and St. Polten, leaving the Franz-Josefs-Bahn at Tulln. Regional trains operate every hour to Eggenburg and every two hours to České Velenice. Direct service between Vienna and Prague over the route, defunct since 1992, resumed in December 2022 as the Silva Nortica (lit. 'Northern Forest'). Regional-Express trains operate hourly to Krems an der Donau, crossing the Danube at Tulln and leaving the Franz-Josefs-Bahn at Absdorf-Hipperdorf.

Eine wirklich sehr schöne Mitfahrt auf der historischen österreichischen Franz Josefs-Bahn, die (in die andere Richtung) von Gmünd weiter über Budweis und Pilsen bis nach Eger führt, und die (noch) eine der letzten ÖBB-Strecken mit planmäßigem Linksverkehr ist, obschon auf allen zweigleisigen Abschnitten Gleiswechselbetrieb eingerichtet ist und die Züge auf beiden Gleisen fahren können. Das zweite Gleis wurde zwischen Gmünd und Absdorf-Hippersdorf in mehreren Etappen entfernt; heute denkt man daran, es - zumindest teilweise - wieder zu errichten. Kaiser Franz Joseph hätte nach dem Ansehen dieses Videos sicher gesagt: "Es war sehr schön, es hat Mich sehr gefreut!" Dank an RailRelaxation für diese interessante Strecke! -
A really lovely ride on the historic Austrian Franz Josef Railway, which runs (in the other direction) from Gmünd via Budweis and Pilsen to Eger, and is (still) one of the last ÖBB routes with scheduled left-hand traffic, although track switching is set up on all double-track sections and trains can run on both tracks. The second track was removed in several stages between Gmünd and Absdorf-Hippersdorf; today there are plans to rebuild it - at least in part. After watching this video, Emperor Franz Joseph would surely have said: "It was very nice, I was very pleased!" Thanks to RailRelaxation for this interesting route! -
Um passeio muito bom na histórica ferrovia austríaca Franz Josefs, que continua (na outra direção) de Gmünd via Budweis e Pilsen até Eger, e que (ainda) é uma das últimas rotas da ÖBB com tráfego regular pela esquerda, embora a pista operações de mudança foram instaladas em todos os trechos de via dupla e os trens podem circular em ambos os trilhos. A segunda pista foi removida entre Gmünd e Absdorf-Hippersdorf em várias etapas; Hoje as pessoas estão pensando em reconstruí-lo - pelo menos parcialmente. Depois de assistir a este vídeo, o Imperador Franz Joseph certamente teria dito: “Foi muito lindo, Me deixou muito feliz!” Obrigado à RailRelaxation por esta rota interessante!
@montgomeryscott1656 Thank you very much for your help and your support.
"Die Strecke wurde ursprünglich von Kaiser Franz Joseph gebaut..." Ich sehe es direkt vor mir, wie sich der Kaiser mit der Schubkarre abmüht und ihm Sissy die Schweißperlen von der Stirn wischt.
But that would be a great scene. 😀😀😀
Very nice ride on a route full with history….
@folditullner9464 True.
This was, until 1945 the mail line between Vienna and Berlin. There is always space for a second track, also at the older bridgeheads.
@walter9029 Interesting.
I love the forest scenery in this part of Northern Austria. Awesome footage. It's nice how the Danube is also prominent in your film.
I am glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for this great video! Now we do know, where some Dining-cars, IC-coaches and Night-Jet-coaches are arround, which we do badly miss on main-lines! Have a nice day!
@christianzotter4224 It was my pleasure!
Yes, it's a good question why they are parked here. 🤔
@@ZvonimirZelenika Maybe the repair-factories are full (since months) and they do not have any more space 😄! We do have many IC`s running with "city-shuttle"-coaches instead of IC-coaches!
Finally!
I was one who has requested this route and finally a vid of yours! Thank you very much.
Greetings!
@Redstone5708 Sometimes it takes me a long time to film some suggested routes, but I am always trying to observe the comments and your suggestions. Greetings back. I am glad that you liked it.
@@RailRelaxation Yeah, but I remember that I requested Vienna to Ceske Velenice instead of Gmünd.
I haven't really seen Ceske Velenice in any video yet,
A varied journey - both in terms of landscape and weather!
Luckily it didn't rain heavily, that would have been a problem for the cameras mounted outside, you can sometimes hear it from the wind pulling on the microphone, so it can only be mounted outside and not in the driver's cab!
Zvonimir Zelenika once kindly described in a comment that two cameras are mounted for safety reasons, thus minimizing the risk of just one device failing 👍👌
There are two scenes in which the image suddenly has a different color depth and position for a short time: right at the beginning and in Ziersdorf station...
Image problems were probably bridged by simply using footage from the other camera for a short time 😊
Overall a wonderful journey, I'm always fascinated by the different cloudy skies - a much more varied image than just blue skies 👍👋
@wandajackson3410 Thank you. Yes, It depends on the route and the journey, but many times I do have to combine the footage from both cameras.
Great video nice to view the farmlands of rural Austria,I love to see how the houses look,enjoyed every bit
@user-cr2wx5uz7o I am happy to hear this.
@1:26:44 no, this has nothing to do with the Flemish painter Rubens. It's a "Rübenplatz" - a siding intended primarily for the loading of sugar beets (German "Zuckerrübe"). These are mainly used during the yearly "beet campaign" ("Rübenkampagne") in September-November, and often sit idle for the rest of the year. It's literally just an open area ("Platz") where piles of beets are offloaded by the local farmers for transshipment.
@stephanweinberger Thank you for the explanation.
beautiful photography on a beautiful day. Thank You.
@johnfrank6112 You are welcome.
Thank you for this video and for all infos given. Globally, it was a nice and interesting cab ride. Some beautiful landscapes seen under the sun, in the first part. Good week end.
@javierguidounicaud6621 Thank you. I wish a nice weekend to you too.
Video and audio quality is highly appreciated!
@peterschlager Thank you. I appreciate your comment.
those 4020 were truly built for eternity... crazy that there is still so many in active service
@lordeisschrank That is good.
The plan was for decommissioning in 2018, currently it is 2025, but there are rumors that a few sets will run until 2030
@@domidom03 I mean... is there any reason for decommissioning besides "old age"?
@@lordeisschrank the old age makes them increasingly prone to faults, and it's also becoming ever harder to get spare parts. Also, they are limited to 120 km/h and have poor acceleration, which makes them an obstacle on busy lines.
Apart from that they are not barrier-free (which is now required by law, they only survive on exemptions), they have no A/C (it really can get hot in them in summer), etc ...
Sure, us rail freaks like them for the nostalgia and the ability to open the window and feel the wind 🙂- but that's not what a typical customer would expect.
A really relaxing ride through beautiful landscape. Many thanks for taking us with you.
@coldfire30 It was my pleasure to take you along. I am glad that you liked the journey.
Great ride, thank you!
@MacGuyver85 Our pleasure!
Thanks for sharing. Very beautiful ride. Not very well known by tourists I guess.

@Konrekt I will look into it. Thank you for the suggestion.
Complimenti! Non conoscevo questa linea, davvero bella!
@bruno68berretta53 Grazie. Enjoy the ride.
Very enjoyable...Thanks!🤠👍
@georgedemings3133 It was my pleasure.
The line I live on. Sadly, a cancelation campaign has been going on with several stops, including mine [fmr. Klein Meiseldorf-Maria Dreieichen station], and of the two sets rails that were once present, only one remains, leading to frequent bottlenecks.
@marcelbinder2150 It is not nice to hear this information. I hope they will reconsider this.
@@RailRelaxation Yeah, I don't think they will. Because I actually sent an email to them, stating that it's a vital connection to both Gmünd and Vienna for the village people. They just answered, they wouldn't reopen the station, citing low ridership - which, in my opinion, is nonsensical, because in recent years, and even before 2015, the year of closure, people have been moving from Vienna to my little village, to escape the city atmosphere. At least 3 families' worth of people would be taking the train, that I know of, if they hadn't closed the station. Nevermind the fact, that our state's government likes to fund the very railway company that keeps on closing stations, with taxpayer money.
Meanwhile, our mayor was busier building a solar farm than advocating the station not be closed. To put the icing on top of the cake, just months before closure, taxpayer money from the village folk, was taken to elongate the station platform - at a cost of a sweet €1+ million euros. For absolutely nothing.
What had made me happy, watching your video, is that you actually included just about every single station shown, that got closed. Illustrating that, if you're living in the countryside, rail infrastructure has been crumbling for decades, all the while ÖBB keeps showing off their "great extension of their rail networks", and politicians telling us countryside residents to stop using cars and "taking advantage of public transport some more".
Maybe that ÖBB part is true in regards to bigger towns, and villages close to Vienna, but it's certainly false for where I'm from...
Sadly, not only have they closed these stations mentioned in the video, but entire lines were canceled. Such as the "Pulkautalbahn", a vital connector between 3 separate still-in-service-today lines (the Franz-Josefs-Bahn, aka Gmünd/České Velenice to Vienna and Wiener Neustadt/Payerbach-Reichenau; the Nordwestbahn, aka Retz/Znojmo to Vienna and Wiener Neustadt; and the Nordbahn, aka Laa a.d. Thaya to Vienna), the connecting railway between FJB at Schwarzenau, between Schwarzenau and Zwettl and so many more...
@@marcelbinder2150 Focusing on high-end (high-speed lines, major corridors) very often leads in many countries to ignoring, cutting and closing of local and regional lines. This has unfortunately happened in many countries, often railways don't know how to scale-down the operation for low density lines so it's easier to close them than to find a efficient way to operate them.
I liked the scenery very much !!!🥸
@sellier-bellot22 It is very nice. I liked the journey too.
Grazie per aver pubblicato questa linea; bella, complimenti!
Buona giornata.
Ciao.
@DavideZerillo Grazie. E buona giornata.
@@RailRelaxation Di niente, figurati.
Wonderful Video again! Over 2 hours well spent.
@FelixvonMontfort👍
12:49. My favorite part.
@ELIZABETH-fu1tf😊
Nice ride as always 😊
@DANT3ES Thanks.
Alle Achtung,ein gutes Video und in 4K
Da die FJB teilweise zweigleisig ausgebaut wird,
wollte ich ohnehin mal sehen,wo dies möglich ist bzw. wo man schon Vorarbeiten macht!
@manfredd7322 Thank you. I hope that you found the answers in this video.
Möglich wäre der zweigleisige Ausbau überall,
aber Bedarf ist nur sehr begrenzt gegeben, hauptsächlich wird es darumgehen wenn die Spange Sigmundsherberg - Horn fertig ist und man den Nahverkehr verdichtet das man Kreuzungen fliegend abwickeln kann und nicht in Bahnhöfen Zeit mit Warten verliert,
gleichzeitig sorgt diese selektive Widerherstellung zweigleisiger Abschnitte das für den begrenzten Güterverkehr trotzdem genug Restkapazität bleibt.
Aber an kaiserliche Zeiten wird dies FJB nie mehr anschließen können, nicht im Güterverkehr und auchnicht im Fernverkehr
ottima linea, ottimi mezzi impegnati, ottime riprese !
@pierluiginistri8042 Grazie mille!
Sehr interessant, gratulieren !
@paolopetronio8260 Danke.
wieder top .😇😊
@dasmusikradio Danke.
@@RailRelaxation gerne😉
A nice cabride, thank you!
But man, that engineer really needs to be taught how to do efficient and consistent braking into the stations - no wonder the substantial delay.
These trainsets can easily handle 80 to 100 kph approaching the mostly quite long platforms.
@Danish_Trainspotting Thank you for your observation.
It seems from Gmund the railway was with double track.
@etr300302 Yes, it was.
красота)))))😊
@Stas1661 Thank you.
Can you do a ride from Munich to Berlin? With an ICE class 3? Sprinter Train? 🇩🇪
@Samirah_al_ifaf I am not sure, but will put it on my to do list.
Nice video
@adamblunsdon7784 Thank you. I am glad that you like it.
So nice videos
@pranowobaris94 Thanks.
@@RailRelaxation very good
@railrelaxation what is that noise when the train starts and do you like or love paper and drawing?
Sorry, I did my comment before to read the explanation. Thanks.
@etr300302 No worries!
Historically, it was an important line and a major connection between Vienna and Bohemia (today Czech Republic), as line from Gmund diverged towards Prague on one hand and to České Budějovice (Budweiss), Plzen and Karlovy Vary (I would say that beer was probably large percentage of cargo). With the dissolution of KuK monarchy in 1918 and especially after 1945 and Iron Curtain, many lines between Austria and other countries that previously formed the KuK monacrhy were either completely closed or downgraded from mainlines to local and branch lines with much less cargo and passenger traffic, with removal of second track on many places.
Können Sie als nächstes bitte die Strecke Wien Meidling bis retz/znojmo hochladen das wäre schön LG
@chrisgamingstreams7095 Thank you for your suggestion. I will look into it.
Picola nota: in svizzera i segnali, con luci led, si "leggono" benissimo; in Austria e Germania ci vuole l'interprete o il visionario !
@pierluiginistri8042 😄
I assume that certain sections well be made two-track again?
@Terepin64 I am not sure about this. Someone commented that they are closing some stations along the line.
very little of them, there is no real capacity issues.
In the main railway era it was a main line conneciting bohemia to the capital vienna of the austrian empire, world war 1 split it up to different countries, world war 2 delivered the iron curtain and killed the most former traffic, the reason it gone to single track because the traffic is gone and will never come back,
the czechian prefer Vienna - Brno - Praha as the main line, not this railway, there will be no push to improve the status,
the local status will deliver little changes now,
mainly a new track Horn - Sigmundsherberg is planed to be able to run direct trains to vienna, additionally there are double track sections planed to be able to run commuter trains faster and not have to wait for the other direction service arrives,
no real perspective for getting a full double track line again
Ich habe schon alle Bhf. bzw. Haltestellen entlang der FJB besucht und fotografiert!
Führerstandsmitfahrt hat für mich keinen Reiz!
Ich besuche nämlich auch Orte und wenn es gibt ein Wirtshaus,bis der nächste Zug kommt!
@manfredd7322 Great. So you already know the line very well.
Who and why activated the emergency break?
@Terepin64 If you check the other comments below the video there is an explanation. @ZvonimirZelenika and
@montgomeryscott1656 replied.
Did you change the camera?
@leofaulhaber5641 No. I use the same.
@@RailRelaxation Thanks for answer. How come there are suddenly such heavy barrel distortions at the edges? Did you compute them out in previous videos? And now not any more? Makes less fun to watch the video.
1:01:30 Any particular reason for the Emergency Brake Stop?
Usually if driver does not acknowledge the signal that he passed in certain period of time, or he went by some point too fast. PZB signalling is used here.
I think he failed to slow down fast enough after the distant signal warning to slow down - after passing the distant signal you have certain amount of time to reduce speed - I would say he started slowing down too late so didnt manage to slow down enough before timer expired, kicking in the autostop. Will check some specs and try to see on larger screen what was the aspect of distant signal, its bit different in our local implementation of PZB than one in Austria, but I would say this makes sense.
@@ZvonimirZelenika Thanks for the answer. 😊
Das Einfahrvorsignal des Bahnhofs Sigmundsherberg zeigte "Hauptsignal Frei mit 40 km/h". Der Triebfahrzeugführer hat das mit der Wachsamkeitstaste zu bestätigen; anschließend hat er im PZB-90-Betrieb bei Stellung O genau 24 Sekunden Zeit, die Geschwindigkeit des Zuges auf höchstens 80 km/h zu reduzieren, was ihm anscheinend nicht gelungen ist. Damit kam es zur Not- bzw Zwangsbremsung. -
The approach signal at Sigmundsherberg station showed "Main signal clear at 40 km/h". The train driver has to confirm this with the alert button; then, in PZB-90 operation at position O, he has exactly 24 seconds to reduce the speed of the train to a maximum of 80 km/h, which he apparently did not manage to do. This led to an emergency or forced braking.
@@montgomeryscott1656 Thank You for correct explanation, in Croatia we use bit older variant of PZB (I-60) so I was not sure of details, but I assumed that principle was the same - distant signal said slow down, but he didn't slow down quick enough.
Could you tell me where youre planning to go next?
@jblghost6190 I don't know yet. Do you have any suggestions?
@RailRelaxation spain again, maybe? I know they have some pretty scenic routes and high-speed routes
Danke herzlich, eine sehr vernachlässigte Strecke im Waldviertel. Man sieht, es gab früher ein zweites Gleis. Vielleicht kommt es irgendwann wieder. Zwischen Tüll wird noch links gefahren, in Österreich eine aussterbende Art.
@wolfgangfuchs1243 Thank you for your comment.
@@RailRelaxation I have heard that ÖBB plans to completely switch over to right hand running on its entire rail network within the next few years.
@Sacto1654 I heard the same thing.
@@RailRelaxation I believe the switch will be complete once the Brenner Base Tunnel and Semmering Base Tunnel open just after 2030.
It's left side operation also from Bruck ad Mur towards Graz and Slovenia - will this be also changed with opening of Koralmtunnel and Koralmbahn?
