Die Moseltalbahn - Das 'Saufbähnchen'

In April 1903, the first section of the Moselle Valley Railway from Trier to Leiwen was officially opened, and in August 1905, the entire route was completed with the opening of the last section from Bernkastel to Bullay. From then on, the narrow-gauge railway, affectionately known as the "Saufbähnchen", connected the idyllic villages along the Middle Moselle between the river and the vineyards over a distance of 102 kilometers in around four hours' travel time.
Between 1961 and 1968, to the chagrin of many Moselle residents, passenger and freight traffic on the line, which had become unprofitable, was discontinued in sections. After the dismantling of the tracks and the demolition of the bridge structures and most of the stations, only a few traces of the railway remained that are still visible today.

In this book, the renowned historian and author of successful Mosel illustrated books, Karl-Josef Gilles, recalls the eventful history of the Moseltalbahn. With over 220 unique, previously largely unpublished photos, he reviews the construction, operation and end of the railway, shows the stations and viaducts, documents the technology and the changes in everyday railway life over six decades.

This illustrated book invites you to a nostalgic trip on the Moseltalbahn and lets not only railway enthusiasts imagine what an attractive means of transport the Mosel Valley has lost forever with the disappearance of the "Saufbähnchen".
