Tried it......:-), kinda enjoyed it, driving the "Orient Express"
through the Austrian Alps (that's the mountains for you geographically
challenged :-) as well as the "Flying Scotsman".....somewhere :-)
  Far be-it for me to criticize another country...but where I come from we
call things by what they are...(i.e. a spade is a shovel and a mule is an
ass) The Austrian Alps??  WHat are Alps?  We call those things Mountains.
And the flying Scottsman?  Don't you Euro types get Scooby Doo re-runs?
It's the legendary haunted ghost sailing ship...'The Flying Dutchman'
sheesh!

Err, they were called Alps first, the term mountains came around much,
much later... ;)
