Jenbach is a municipality in the Schwaz district of Tyrol, Austria. Its railway station is a little unusual in that trains of three different gauges use it. The main line is Standard gauge. The Achenseebahn, which is Europe's oldest steam operated cog railway, that climbs to Seespitz on Lake Achensee is Metre gauge and the Zillertalbahn which operates to the ski resort of Mayrhofen is 760mm gauge.
