Kreuzeckbahn - Technical

Kreuzeckbahn Logo

 

At Tratten, the bottom station of the Kreuzeckbahn, are stored many old equipments salvaged from the Golmerbahn which was stopped in 1995.

See my article about the Golmerbahn in FUNIMAG #8

and look the picture of the opened platform which was used for the maintenance and compare it with the platform (right) stored at the Kreuzeckbahn.

Two cabins from the Golmerbahn were reused:
- one on the Kreuzeckbahn.
- one on the Reisseckbahn but this one has been truncated and shortened.
