This is an interesting snow broom that was bought at the same time as the Hall trams and came from the same supplier. Although it has a bow collector it was not self-propleed but had to be pushed by one or two of the Hall trams, the power supply being for the brush. As there was no loop at the Hall end but the brush always needed to be at the leading end, the whole body structure rotates on the four wheel truck. The pushing trams would then run round it like any other trailer.

The vehicle beyond is Rittnerbahn 4, a rack loco built by SLM at Winterthur in 1909 which has AEG electrical equipment. The rack railway was replaced by a cable car in 1966 and from 1972 was on display at the Tiroler Landesmuseum before passing to the TMB in 2004. It was restored in time for the 2007 centenary of the Rittnerbahn.
