Dampf-Bahn-Club Sprockhövel

[1] The rail track is located in the immediate vicinity of the former railway line Schee-Silschede, which is now used as a bicycle trail and is part of the Von-Ruhr-zur-Ruhr-Radweg.

The route, which runs in two partly winding circles over an area of about one hectare, is about 400 metres (440 yd) long.

This is a complex construction, which is rare in garden railways, as the tracks are usually laid as in the raw-model in a ballast bed.

With financial support from a local foundation, the association succeeded in 2017 to build a steel bridge, which is also used as a track underpass.

[2][3] The club regularly organizes public railway trips between April and September, which attracts mainly local families for leisure activities.
