    When coal and coke deliveries from the Ruhr area became scarcer after the First World War, demand for the tried-and-tested fuel peat increased in northern Germany.
    In 1919 Neumünster approved the
    Funds to be able to mine peat in the nearby Hasenmoor.
    A 9km long route was created to connect the mining area with the train station in Großenaspe.
    After the Second World War, the production of peat coke and briquettes was switched to until demand came to a complete standstill in 1965.
