Capturing the absurdity of the GKB S6 trains in sunny weather...
#SteierMarch
GKB's other two lines, S61 and S7, use more conventional rolling stock โ at least, most of the trains. #SteierMarch

Additional afternoon REX7 trains between Graz and Kรถflach operate with loco-hauled double-deck coaches from the 1990s. Most of the trains we saw had two coaches, and some had three. There was a mix of old and new livery. #SteierMarch

Another StB line departs from Graz Hbf: the S31 to Weiz. On the main Weizer Bahn line between Gleisdorf and Weiz, there is at least an hourly service from Monday to Friday. On Saturdays, there is a two-hourly service. There are no services on Sundays. Between Weiz Bahnhof and Weiz Nord, the S31 trains becomes a tram. #SteierMarch

Not only the manufacturer of the StB Class 5062 DMU (Stadler Gtw) reminds me of home, but also a train that we are rolling past in Graz...

#SteierMarchIt is time for an
excursion into the town of Graz. As the trams are rather full, the plan is to take some pictures rather than ride on them. #SteierMarch

As the trams are rather full, the plan is to take some pictures rather than ride on them. #SteierMarchDue to the lack of operations on many branch lines in Styria and the delayed opening of the Gleichenbergerbahn this year, alternative program must be found: An international Interregio service using Sลฝ Flirts. I like the blue-white exterior of this train. However, the screens are not optimally configured for the different languages, displaying mainly the Slovenian names for Austrian stations. The sparsely used Sunday lunchtime service takes us across the border to
Maribor. #SteierMarch

I'm surprised by how tranquil this beautiful city of 110,000 inhabitants is on this Sunday afternoon. #SteierMarch

The only
Maribor - 
Bleiburg/Pliberk #CrossBorderRail weekend service is about to depart! It's a peaceful journey alongside the Drava River, with far more stops than passengers. At many stations, station staff observes the eventless trainstop. Most of the villages are located on the opposite side of the river, which are difficult conditions for the trains. However, there are optimal transfer times to รBB trains at Bleiburg/Pliberk, a bilingual town of 4,000 inhabitants. #SteierMarch

The S1 takes us to St. Paul im Lavanttal far away from the small eponymous town, where we can catch the Railjet to Vienna from the same platform. It is my first ride on a Railjet... sorry, Koralmjet with a modernised interior. #SteierMarch

The clock in Maribor's station hall is an absolute marvel -

The next morning means it's time for the train back home. After many rides on quirky, short trains, the 'classic' long-distance train is a welcome change. The beloved #Transalpin Graz-Zurich is the last loco-hauled EuroCity train to Switzerland. A nine-and-a-half-hour train ride through the Austrian Alps awaits!
Only drawback: It is operated with fewer second class coaches today again. However, we are lucky enough to sit in a different car. #SteierMarch

#SteierMarchOf all the #Transalpin 's stops, I find Radstadt the most bizarre. A nine-and-a-half-hour Swiss-Austrian EuroCity train journey through the Alps stops at a station with a level crossing that serves 5,000 people.

#SteierMarch@larstransportworld Now I want to go to Radstadt with the Transalpin and stay a couple of nights.
