Description
Bahnhof Oberrittersgrün
Experience Saxon narrow gauge railway history ...
In 1971, when the Grünstädtel-Oberrittersgrün narrow gauge railway line withdrew all passenger services, railway enthusiasts from Rittersgrün started the first collection of narrow gauge vehicles in the GDR. So, several especially valuable rail cars were conveyed to Rittersgrün to be reconstructed there. The unmodernised IV K 99 579 steam engine, which is on display in the engine shed, is the pride of the museum. After 1990, the work group of the German Metalworkers’ Union (DMV) became a registered association. This association also operates the Park Railway in Rittersgrün, a 600-mm (23.62-inch) Feldbahn (narrow gauge railway).
