You load your car on the train, go through the tunnel, unload the car and drive.





%26gt;What is the cost to use it





17 Euro





%26gt;and how often does it run?





Hourly.

It would kind of defeat it%26#39;s purpose, right?

That%26#39;s the so called %26quot;Tauernschleuse%26quot;. Quite easy. Drive there, pay, anybody except the driver leaves the car and goes to the pasenger coach, the driver parks the car and goes to the passenger coach... that%26#39;s it.





It goes hourly, but you can also have a look at





http://fahrplan.oebb.at/bin/query.exe/en --%26gt; Carsleepertrain (don%26#39;t worry, it%26#39;s not a sleeper for 11 minutes).





No possibility to reserve in advance (which would be stupid as one can%26#39;t say which train one can get).
