OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Achensee Railway is a 6.78 kilometres (4.21 mi) long metre gauge railway running between Jenbach and Seespitz on Lake Achensee in Tyrol. Within its length it rises some 440 metres in height, with the steeper sections using the Riggenbach rack system. It is Europe's oldest steam operated cog railway. In 1886, Theodor Friedrich Freiherr von Dreifuss proposed to connect Jenbach to the Achensee. Despite concerns by villagers in the area, the proposal was supported by the monastery at Fiecht, which owned the Achensee and ran steam boats on the lake.
