Wir fordern in der kommenden Gemeinderatssitzung mit einer Resolution an die #ÖBB die Wiedereinführung mehrmals täglich verkehrender, schneller Intercity-Züge zwischen #Linz und #Graz.🚄

CO2-Ausstoß des Verkehrs reduzieren geht gut durch Verlagerung von mehr Autofahrten auf #Bahn, Bus oder aktive Mobilität (Gehen, #Radfahren). Plus: Weniger Tempo auf der Straße, dafür mehr Tempo bei der #Energiewende vom Verbrenner auf #eMobility

Der #Flugverkehr hinterlässt nicht nur am Himmel viele Spuren. Pro Jahr verursacht Flugverkehr in der EU mehr als 135 Millionen Tonnen CO2. Dazu kommen noch Feinstaub- und Lärmbelastung für #Flughafen-Anrainer:innen. Europa braucht mehr #Bahn und ein Ende der Steuerprivilegien für den Flugverkehr!

#TrainTrackTuesday from the summit of #Snowdon (aka #YrWyddfa)! ⛰️
This is the #SnowdonMountainRailway (SMR), a narrow-gauge rack-and-pinion #mountain railway, that has been taking passengers from Llanberis to the summit since 1896 (!).
Here are some other facts you might enjoy:
- It's the only public rack-and-pinion #railway in the #UK.
- The average speed of the train is 5 mph (8 km/h).
- The total track length is 4.7 miles (7.5 km).
- It carries around 140,000 passengers each year.
- A round-trip to the summit takes approx. 2.5 hours, including a 30-minute stop at the summit visitor centre.
- From the #summit station, it's only 68 ft (21 m) to the summit cairn (though it's quite steep).
- Trains are scheduled at 30-minute intervals, subject to passenger demand.
- The SMR currently operates 3 coal-fired steam locomotives and 4 diesel locomotives. Last week, only diesel locomotives were in service, as the heritage steam locomotives typically run from June to September.
- On its official opening day in April 1896, one of the locomotives derailed and fell down the mountain, resulting in one fatality. Following this incident, the maximum allowed train weight was reduced, and a gripper system was installed on the rack railway. It's been full steam ahead ever since.
