Recordings of the Bavarian Zugspitzbahn. It is a metre-gauge railway with adhesion and cogwheel drive (system:Riggenbach ), which connects the villages of Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Grainau in southern Bavaria with the Lake Eibsee and mountain Zugspitze.
Between Garmisch (705 m) and Zugspitzplatt (2588 m), 1800 meters in altitude are overcome.
The use of the vehicles is very versatile and is sometimes adapted several times a day to the current weather conditions and traffic volume.
On the Grainau-Garmisch valley section, a former shuttle train with Swiss railway vehicles (engine coach No 309 (built in 1979) of the Bernese Oberland Bahn BOB and two former control cars of the Bern-Solothurn regional transport RBS) is used when there is a high demand for traffic. Although the railcar (former service between Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald) is equipped with a cogwheel (for works traffic in the Grainau depot entrance), it is not approved for the mountain route due to the incline and the tunnel profile.
On the mountain route, Stadler railcars no. 12-16 are used (often in double traction). For additional charter and backup trips in good weather, the old SLM/BBC railcar no. 5 (built in 1978) with control car and the SLM/Siemens double railcars 10 and 11 (built in 1987) are used.
When the weather is bad and there is little traffic, the trains on the mountain route run in single traction from Garmisch via Grainau to the Zugspitze.
In addition to the mountain locomotive no. 19 (Stadler), with a bit of luck the historic locomotive no. 4 (AEG built in 1929) can be watched around the Grainau depot for shunting trips.
