Österreichische Mediathek The Österreichische Mediathek (Austrian Media Center) comprises the audio-visual archives of the Technisches Museum Wien. Its collections focus on published sound storage media and videos, especially Austrian productions, and recordings in the fields of serious and light music, literature, politics, science, the humanities, everyday life, and history. Digitalization allows accessing the media per mouse click via "vox boxes" in the center itself or through the Internet. Railway Museum Strasshof The Railway Museum Strasshof boasts numerous historical rail vehicles and impressive engines. Besides the oldest steam engine in working condition, the KFNB "Licaon" built in 1851, its exhibits also include the electric locomotive ÖBB 1198.05 from 1927, affectionately called the "Crocodile." The Railway Museum's premises cover an area of 8.5 hectares and house a complete switching unit. There is a hall for the vehicles, the so-called "Heizhaus," and a number of minor structures necessary for the operation of the more than 80 rail conveyances. |
