"The Frohburg–Kohren-Sahlis railway (also known as the Wyhratalbahn) was a branch line in Saxony. It ran in the Wyhra valley from Frohburg to Kohren-Sahlis."
"On May 27, 1967, passenger traffic was discontinued, and on December 31, 1967, freight traffic as well. The line was dismantled by 1972.
In the 1990s, the association “Freunde der Kohrener Eisenbahn” was founded with the aim of building a museum station at the old engine shed in Kohren-Sahlis. Vehicles have already been collected and tracks laid. Due to legal and economic difficulties, however, these plans had to be abandoned.
The track body of the Wyhratalbahn has been preserved in its entirety to this day. It will be reused by a cycle path." - de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahnstrecke_Frohburg%E2%80%93Kohren-Sahlis
