A network of railway lines connected the Königshain granite quarries with the rest of the world. Small tracks brought the lorries to the station, where they were loaded onto the railway wagons. - Tracks, wagons and loading equipment can be seen, as can lorries, cranes, etc. near the Granite Museum.
