Route is non-electrified and single-tracked.[3][4] The maximum permitted speed throughout the entire L101 railway is 60 kilometres per hour (37 miles per hour).[5] The route was built in 1889 as Zalaegerszeg-Čakovec railway, but in 1945, after World War II, the route was dismantled between Lendava and Rédics. Slovenian Railways plans to rebuild the section between Lendava and Rédics.[6]
