SKGLB-Museum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The SKGLB-museum shows relics of the former Salzkammergut Lokalbahn (shorty SKGLB) that was a railway line in 760 mm track from Salzburg to Bad Ischl with a branch to Mondsee - a town located at the lake Mondsee. The terminal station at Mondsee is the only preserved station of this line. It has been converted to a museum about the line, and its history and contains a collection of original vehicles and pictures about it. The line was privately owned firstly by the Bavarian company "Lokalbahn Aktiengesellschaft" known as LAG. This company owned the cog railway from St. Wolfgang to the Schafberg too which is still in operation.
