About the film

WINTER, STEAM & PASSION: these three words capture what awaits viewers on the latest cinematic journey by Dresden director Sebastian Linda along the DAMPFBAHN-ROUTE Sachsen. Steel colossi under steam, taken out on the line every day by engine drivers and firemen with passion, pride and attention to detail, delight passengers time and time again. In winter, a steam train ride has a romance all of its own, as clouds of steam drift past the carriage window through a snow-covered landscape. Filmed in the Ore Mountains and Upper Lusatia, two popular winter holiday regions, Sebastian Linda’s film captivates the viewer with dynamic perspectives and action-packed moments, but also with a leisurely journey back in time to bygone eras.

The film shows just part of the wide range of rail experiences along the DAMPFBAHN-ROUTE Sachsen, with five narrow-gauge railways running daily, further steam-hauled museum railways, and experiences on either side of the track.

All aboard, and stand clear as the train departs!
