PART B_2

The Semmering Railway is famous for being the first railway to cross the Alps with the highest slope in Europe. Nowadays, the railway is famous for its remarkable structures and beautiful landscape. Many tourists from all over the world visit Austria to enjoy the railway. Karl Ritter was the man who started the construction of the Semmering Railway. His skills have been praised for more than 150 years.

Karl Ritter was an engineer who designed the railway, but he was not a railway engineer originally. When he was forty years old, he studied in the US for 1 year because of its advanced engineering technology at that time.

The Austrian government had a hard time to construct the railway in the Alps because it was extremely difficult and no one had accomplished it before. But Karl submitted his idea to the government that fully used locomotive technology. It took time to get accepted. The government was not sure how to start with something that had not been done before. But in the end, they accepted his idea. The 1848 revolution was enough reason to make the decision. With people’s high needs and expectations, the Semmering Railway project was started in 1848.
