    Cycling

    The "Kleine Wuppertalerin" is an old electric locomotive that was built by Maffei in Munich in 1910 and served the Hatzfeld route at the time. After operations there ceased in 1979, it continued to serve for a long time in Austria with the LVE and was finally brought back to the valley in 2023. Now it stands as a memorial on the Nordbahntrasse. A great idea I think!

    The E 608 ran on this route from 1910 to 1980, then in Austria. The repurchase and transport cost €40,000.
