Description

Full description from the producer:

Austria’s Arlberg Route is a line of contrasts, running fast through open countryside one minute and clinging perilously to mountain ledges the next. The line burrows through long and deep tunnels and flies high above gorges and valleys, its very existence a tribute to the engineers who built it originally, maintain it today and are modernising it for the future.

The scenery and variety of landscape encountered en route make this line rank amongst the world’s greatest train journeys. This programme examines the Arlberg route at a time of great change and features a unique, extensive and informative cabride sequence on the eastern approaches from Innsbruck to St. Anton.
