    Old railway line Walburg - Eichenberg: from Velmeden station (located a little further towards Ort on Gilsbergstraße) the line divided, once to Eichenberg (via Laudenbach, Uengsterode, Großalmerode Ostbahnhof, Trubenhausen, Hundelshausen, Witzenhausen Südbahnhof) and once to Großalmerode Westbahnhof ( via Rommerode, Epterode).... in addition, during the war years, a branch was created at Steinholz, which led to the Hirschhagen ammunition factory.

        ... there has not been a train for a long time - but maybe it will turn into a bike path
