Material was transported in the pot not only by train, but also by cable car - which is somehow also a train. And a cable car also needs a track on which to build. If the cable car is no longer needed, here also offers a very nice way of recultivation: the (train) path bike path.

2.6 km follow the old route, while you cycle mostly on a water-bound ceiling. By the way, the former cable car belonged to the mine Minister Achenbach, which was shut down in the 1990s. On the way you will pass relics of the mining industry. Most striking is probably the so-called "Colani egg": former winding tower, now a business lounge. The path is a nice connection between Datteln-Hamm and Dortmund-Ems-Kanal.

From 1922 onwards, shaft 4 produced the first coal for the mine's own consumption. Because there was no underground connection to shaft 1/2, another solution had to be found to transport the coal from the east field to shaft 1/2. This problem was solved by having a 2.2 km long cable car built. On May 20th, 1921, the Pohlig company in Cologne was awarded the contract for this cable car. On March 5th, 1923, the cable car went into operation and produced the first coal to shaft 1/2. This cable car was built right through the town of Brambauer. From shaft 4, the route led behind the gardens of the colliery colony, past the old cemetery in the direction of Waltroper Strasse. There the cable car crossed Waltroper Strasse in the area of the Wittekindschule (the then Auguste-Victoria-Schule). The route then led across open fields to the Gasthof Fels. There was a cable tensioning station and a curve to guide the cable car towards Shaft 1/2.
