!!!Jauntalbahn

Jaun Valley Railway, 19 km long, built 1959-1964. Together with 
the Langenberg Tunnel (1443 m long), the Johannesberg Tunnel (400 m 
long), and the Drau Bridge (430 m long, 86 m high, highest railway 
bridge in Austria) connects Jaun Valley with Lavant Valley 
(Bleiburg-St. Paul) on Austrian territory, replacing the circuitous 
route (Klagenfurt-Unter-Drauburg/Dravograd-Lavamuend-St.Paul) through 
the region ceded to Yugoslavia in 1919.
