Between Bolzano and Maria Assunção, thanks to the technology of the traction by rack, the little train surpasses a fall of just under 1,000 m altitude before continuing on a flat route from Maria Assunção to Soprabolzano, Stella and Collalbo.

It was a small mountain train in the Swiss model in vogue at the time of the Belle Époque, when we wanted to open the way in the mountains for the rich tourists. In the following decades, the construction of this train represented the lucky occasion for the same population of Renon.

In 1966 the path to the rack was abandoned, replaced by a cable car, contemporaneously from Bolzano to Soprabolzano. In May 2009, the first cable car was later replaced with this Renon cable car.

The narrow-gauge train, which today is the last of its kind throughout Alto Adige, today connects only Maria Assunção to Collalbo, with some old wagons and other modern ones.
