    Tips

    There are a total of three viaducts on the Swabian Forest Railway line. The smallest is the Igelsbach Viaduct, located just after the Klaffenbach district. It spans the Igelsbach stream with a three-hinged arch with a span of 27 meters.

    Next comes the Strümpfelbach Viaduct. Six semicircular arches support the 121-meter-long bridge structure of this railway bridge. The unobstructed view from 20 meters above the valley floor made the viaduct near the hamlet of Steinbach one of the most photogenic motifs along the line in earlier times. With a radius of curvature of just 200 meters, it also has the tightest curve of all three viaducts. It's impossible to make any tighter curves, as trains would not be able to negotiate an even tighter curve.
