    Hiking

    For those interested in technology: 75 cm is the gauge of this railway, which ran from 1896 to 1936 on the Wallhausen - Bad Kreuznach - Winterberg route.
    The locomotives on display date from 1920 (narrow gauge) and 1923 (shunting locomotive, standard gauge).

    Hiking

    To describe a locomotive with an empty weight of more than 20 tons as a "light railroad" sounds strange. But what is at stake here is the track width of 750 mm, which is also commonly known as narrow gauge. In contrast to the standard gauge with a gauge of 1435 millimeters that is usual in Germany.
    In the small open-air museum you can marvel at two steam locomotives that are freely accessible.
