    The museum railway was actually supposed to start operating again on the disused railway line between Bischhausen and Waldkappel - with trains and handcars. But the tracks are deserted in the summer heat.
    The railway line of the former cannon railway between Berlin and Metz in Lorraine has been closed for 30 years. In addition to the handcar and a squad car, the open-air museum also has telecommunications technology to offer. Telecommunication masts can be built along the tracks at a distance of 50 meters true to the original, there is also an intact barrier.

    A wonderful and worth seeing facility. It is a preserved part of the cannon railway from Berlin to Metz.
