A meeting place for celebrations, socializing, or even for intimate time together: the so-called Rasch train station. It is located not far from the spot where the road from Rasch to Daßwang intersects with State Road 2234 in the municipality of Seubersdorf. Father's Day celebrations are held there, the village youth meet here, and the occasional commuter parks their vehicle nearby. A small seating area stands among the lush greenery, in front of which Herrmann Wolfsteiner has placed a sign reading "Rasch train station." Two cut-out hearts in the plaque indicate that this is an ideal place for lovers to get a little closer. The road from the village of Rasch to the present-day state road was so poor, however, that the only place where the Rasch train station was located was the postal bus stop. Even if a farmer from Rasch wanted to sell cattle, he had to drive them there. "It was, so to speak, a transit point for people and animals," the three Rasch residents said. The postal bus departure times were listed under the sign "Rasch Train Station."

How exactly the name "Rasch Train Station" came about, however, Geitner, Waldhier, and Habermann couldn't quite ascertain. It's very likely, however, that the small, romantic square next to the state road owes its name to a bus driver named Rosner, who traveled several times a day from Parsberg to Dietfurt and vice versa about six decades ago. He apparently gave all his stops a kind of nickname. According to tradition, he renamed the stop by the pond in Daßwang "Dutzendteich Daßwang," and whenever he stopped in Rasch, he would always call out: "Rasch Train Station Stop." It's nice that a sign still commemorates this and that the square remains a popular meeting place.

A meeting place for celebrations, socializing, or even for intimate moments: the so-called Rasch Train Station. It is located not far from where the road from Rasch to Daßwang intersects with State Road 2234 in the municipality of Seubersdorf. Father's Day celebrations are held there, the village youth meet here, and the occasional commuter parks their vehicle nearby. A small seating area stands among the lush greenery, in front of which Herrmann Wolfsteiner has placed a sign reading "Rasch Train Station." Two cut-out hearts in the plaque indicate that this is an ideal place for lovers to get a little closer.

The DONAUKURIER has now investigated what lies behind the name. Georg Geitner, at over 90 years old, one of Rasch's oldest residents, remembers, for example, that a sign reading "Rasch Train Station" stood there as a child. Together with Josef Waldhier and Michael Habermann, he recounts that in earlier times, a large yellow post bus, traveling from Parsberg via Daßwang and Breitenbrunn to Dietfurt, was one of the few ways to get anywhere. However, the road from the village of Rasch to what is now the state road was so poor that the only stop for the post bus was at the site of Rasch train station. Even if a farmer from Rasch wanted to sell livestock, he had to drive it there. "It was, so to speak, a transshipment point for people and animals," the three Rasch residents say. The post bus departure times were listed under the sign "Rasch Train Station."

However, Geitner, Waldhier, and Habermann were unable to determine with complete certainty how the name "Rasch Train Station" came about. It's very likely that the small, romantic square next to the state highway owes its name to a bus driver named Rosner, who traveled several times a day from Parsberg to Dietfurt and vice versa about six decades ago. He apparently gave all his stops a kind of nickname. When stopping in Rasch, he would always call out: "Rasch train station stop." It's nice that a sign still commemorates this today and that the square remains a popular meeting place.
