Bergbahn Rheineck-Walzenhausen (AB-RhW) - Switzerland RhW - now part of Appenzeller Bahnen - just has fairly old motor car. Because of the weird gauge (1200mm), catenary voltage (600V DC) and rack (Riggenbach) it will not be cheap to find or build a replacement. Rheineck, 01-03-2010 Digital photo by Marco van Uden
