StLB_FG1.jpg (125665 bytes)

StLB line Bad Gleichenberg - Feldbach. The white vertical bar with red on top marks the end of a section with multiple road crossings where the driver has to whistle repeatedly. The black/white striped vertical bar in the background marks the track contact for the next automatic level crossing.

StLB line Bad Gleichenberg - Feldbach. Straight section with old catenary.

StLB_FG4.jpg (115467 bytes)

StLB line Bad Gleichenberg - Feldbach. Double curve north of Gnas with modernized catenary (prepared for a later conversion to 15 kV AC). Currently this is an isolated line with 1.8 kV DC, the connecting ÖBB line in Feldbach is not electrified. When the overhead wires were renewed between Feldbach and Gnas (1991 to 1994), the line was prepared for a conversion to the standard system, should the ÖBB line be electrified one day.

StLB_FG5.jpg (127574 bytes)

StLB line Bad Gleichenberg - Feldbach. Curved section with new skew catenary (prepared for high voltage) north of Gnas. If the poles are on the inside of the curve, these very long brackets are necessary to support the skew catenary.

StLB_FG6.jpg (119226 bytes)

StLB line Bad Gleichenberg - Feldbach. Curved section with new skew catenary (prepared for high voltage) north of Gnas. As you can see, the catenary is tilted by about 60° in curves, which allows the wire to follow the curve, an elegant way to reduce the number of poles required in tight curves. This system is also common for some Swiss narrow gauge railways, but is not usually found on mainlines as it is not suited for higher speeds. Only the contact wire is tensioned with weights.

StLB_FG7.jpg (93051 bytes)

StLB line Bad Gleichenberg - Feldbach. Here you can see how the catenary is skewed at the end of a curve.

StLB_FG8.jpg (92491 bytes)

StLB line Bad Gleichenberg - Feldbach. A nice example of the many curves and changes of gradient on this line, which closely follows the hilly landscape without any tunnels or viaducts. Here the skew overhead wire with new high voltage insulators is supported by the old lattice pylons.

StLB_FG9.jpg (90192 bytes)

StLB line Bad Gleichenberg - Feldbach. Final approach to Feldbach. On the right you can see the non-electrified ÖBB line to Szentgotthard. I believe this is the only real main signal of the whole line - the entrance signal of Feldbach. The StLB follows the ÖBB's convention of painting the last overhead masts before a main signal white/red/white.
