Railway Safari – the fascination of steam

How wonderful it is when the old steam engine puffs its way up the hill, when whistling trains full of cheerful people steam through meadows and forests. Climb aboard and travel back to your childhood. What boy didn't want to become an engine driver!
Partly on a regular basis, partly on operating days or special occasions, steam locomotives haul their trains on standard and narrow gauge through our region. Enjoy the magnificent Ore Mountains without noise and hustle. Breathe in the special smell of hot lubricating oil, steam and coal as the breeze blows around your nose. Let your gaze wander over the blossoming mountain meadows as mountains and forests pass by in a wide arc.
But we would also like to introduce you to the people who make these hours possible. Railway enthusiasts spend their free time in clubs, investing their knowledge, skills and love in the old technology. A locomotive was even taken down from its monument plinth and made to run again! We take you to lines that were rebuilt after German reunification and bring you to stations that are being brought back to life. Find out how much water a steam locomotive needs and taste steam locomotive beer and "axle oil". And on this trip from engine shed to engine shed you will enjoy our beautiful Ore Mountains and get to know its people, especially those with the railway virus.
Get on board with us and let yourself be infected by this virus!
