The Sülztalbahn once rolled here. The “Sülztalbahn” doesn’t actually exist officially. Officially, the railway line was called “Cologne-Lindlar” after its completion and was divided into several operational sections from Kalk-Süd via Cologne-Mülheim, Cologne-Dellbrück, Bergisch Gladbach and Rösrath to Lindlar.
A railway line that is partly still very much alive, but has also left numerous traces and has come back to life as a pleasant cycle path.

A cycle path on a railway line can be a great cycle path, but the railway line as a railway is now dead for good.
