The Oldenburg–Brake railway is a former railway connection, almost 32 kilometers long, from Oldenburg (Oldenburg) to Brake (Unterweser). Since it was built by the Großherzoglich Oldenburgische Eisenbahn (GOE), the line was operated continuously until 1976.
Due to the boggy subsoil, which made the construction of the line very difficult and expensive, especially between the Ipwege and Grossenmeer stations, it was also nicknamed the "rubber track". The track bed laid on the soft moor soil gave way under the weight of the trains and gave the passengers the impression of driving on rubber.[1]
