Regional Express is an audiovisual experience on the rail route; a trip from the past to the future. While traveling, passengers can hear the conversation of the Train, the Mountain and Traunsee Mermaid intercut by fragments of interviews with locals. Memories of humans and non-humans retell the story of the Salzkammergut. Petra Ardai created this docu-fiction narrative about how the landscape, the salt, and the industry formed the region. Which powers shaped structures that are still present? What is the place of tradition in the future? You can hop on the train in Gmunden, Ebensee, Bad Ischl, Hallstatt and Bad Aussee. The 5 excursions can be accessed via the QR code and from March 2024 via the Salzkammergut Culture Guide App.
Tickets for the regional express are available from the ÖBB ticket shop and online.
