Steam Train Ride
Overview
Intro
The star of the day is the Swiss A3/5 express steam locomotive No. 705. It is the only remaining locomotive of this type and belongs to the Zurich Steam Group.
What makes a ride in our historic “wooden-class” railcars so interesting? The simple wooden benches give you the feeling of traveling back to the era of our great-grandparents. You can feel the gentle jolting of the tracks directly, hear the clattering of the cars, and smell the smoke from the steam locomotive. The windows, which slide down completely, let you feel the breeze as you ride.
Upon arrival from Singen at Ramsen Station, the train stops for half an hour at 10:45 a.m. and 1:45 p.m. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to check out the LGB model railroad in operation at the station and grab a bite to eat at our stand. The spicy Loki sausages from the grill are always a big hit.
