Petersberg Railway

The Petersberg Railway, or Petersbergbahn, was a rack railway line in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany.

The line ran from Königswinter to the summit of the Petersberg mountain, and was built to serve the Hotel Petersberg there.

[1][2] The line had a rail gauge of 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) and used the Riggenbach rack design, with trains propelled by steam locomotives.

Although never physically connected, the two railways used the same track gauge and rack equipment, and rolling stock was transferred between the two lines.
