In 2008 the peat mining at Anton-Günther Meiners was given up. The field railway was subsequently dismantled. As the Ernst Karl company continues to mine peat in Westerhorn, their peat plant was reactivated and Ernst Karl bought 3 locomotives from the Meiners company. In 2011, all of the Meiners peat plant was demolished. The field track is still visible and has a length of about 500 meters. Especially in spring there are many ducks and geese on the water surface
