Here, you will find all information on how to transport your car or motorcycle on the Tauern motorail. To ensure your safe journey:
Separate transport of vehicles and passengers

Transport only after prior reservation
Coaches (2 axles) and motorcycle groups are only transported after prior reservation via mail autoschleuse.tauernbahn@pv.oebb.at.
Transport is subject to available spaces, reservations are not possible. We cannot guarantee transport on a particular train. Please note the signs posted in the loading zones.
Barrier-free travel
- Due to the structural nature of the older passenger cars, wheelchair users cannot use the toilet on the trains at the Tauernbahn car lock. As an alternative, barrier-free toilet facilities are available in the Mallnitz-Obervellach and Böckstein stations.
- Due to the structural nature of older passenger cars, only wheelchairs with a width of 65 cm can be transported. A wheelchair with a width of 60 cm is available in both the Mallnitz-Obervellach and Böckstein stations to transport wheelchair users in passenger cars.
