Lottenbirge

Lottenbirge 3.5mm HO/HOe

Lottenbirge is somewhere in the Erzgebirge/Saxony region of Germany. It is at the end of a standard gauge branch line that forms the interchange with the extensive 750mm narrow gauge network in the region. Wagons are still loaded onto transporter wagons to continue their journey to the local industries, heavy road transport not being an option. The time period is towards the end of the 20th century around the time of German reunification. The railway has been neglected for a few years. Steam locomotives are still in daily use alongside their diesel replacements on both the standard and narrow gauge.
