Ulm Railway Society

The Group (UEF Lokalbahn Amstetten-Gerstetten e. V.) owns other diesel locomotives and railbuses and historic branch line passenger coaches.

The luggage vans homed at Ettlingen, which are usually used for the free transportation of bicycles, were used to carry the mortal remains of Frederick the Great from Hechingen to Potsdam.

This group maintains the most famous steam locomotives in the Ulmer Eisenbahnfreunde - 01 1066 and 01 509 - as well as historic, express train, 1st and 2nd class coaches.

The non-operational express train engine, number 01 1081, is being refurbished as a museum exhibit in the Augsburg Railway Park.

The services operated by the Ulmer Eisenbahnfreunde are regularly reported in the railway press and in TV programmes such as Eisenbahn-Romantik ('Railway Nostalgia').
