    Tips

    September 6, 2023

    Because the municipality of Edewecht in what was then the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg was not connected to the rail network when the railways were built until the beginning of the twentieth century, the municipal council tried to have its own connection to the Oldenburg–Leer main railway in Zwischenahn. On January 8, 1910, the Oldenburg State Ministry approved the construction.

    Construction and operation were transferred by the municipality to the Grand Ducal Oldenburg State Railway. The construction costs were estimated at 429,000 marks. The Grand Duchy gave a subsidy of 130,000 marks; the community had to finance the rest itself. On December 15, 1912, operations opened on the standard-gauge, single-track railway, which was seven kilometers long. It was primarily intended to transport peat, which was also used as fuel for locomotives at the time, and to transport livestock.
