Döllnitzbahn (Oschatz - Mügeln - Glossen)?

Question

Can anyone tell me if this line is running? Their website (www.doellnitzbahn.de) shows 2 trains a day Mon - Fri over the full line + some short workings, but I have read somewhere that they are not running, and I have had no reply to an email I sent a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks for any updated information.

Answer 2

It seems they are running. They have a plan up at http://www.doellnitzbahn.de/DBG-FPL10-12...

and they're part of the public transport, as far as it seems.

But the plan says that the steam trains only run on every last weekend in the month and not for the rest of the month, if that's what you're asking. (In the schedule, that's the departures with a small locomotive image and a six in a square and a cross symbol next to it. Additionally, the runs that are marked with an "X" made from hammers and an A in a circle only run during the weekdays, so if you go any weekend but the last weekend of the month, there will, in fact be no traffic.)

They have announced extra runs of the steam train "Wilder Robert"  for 28./29.July 2007 and 25./26.August 2007. The schedule can be found here: http://www.doellnitzbahn.de/Wilder-Rober...
