Shindig at the Steam-Powered Playground!
🚂🚃🚅 Let's hop on the historic railways rollercoaster at Wuppertal-Kohlfurth! After a four-year hiatus due to a pandemic and flood damages, it's full steam ahead for a day packed with steamy mayhem on the second day at the operations yard!
Model trains are hitting the tracks, baby! Trains depart from 10:40 AM, with a schedule that's tighter than a miser's purse. Kids and kiddos under 17, y'all ride free if accompanied by a grown-up!
Gear up for an exhibition and café extravaganza, open from 11 AM to 5 PM. Swing by the book wagon for local and transport history whizz, or grab some souvenirs to take back home. Fancy a coffee and cake or a wafer treat, or maybe spice things up with grilled or curry dogs and cold refreshments? Sit back, relax, and mingle with fellow railway enthusiasts. (Snap some sick photos if it's a typical Pentecost Sunday scene in 2025!)
adventurous visits to Manuelskotten in the Kaltenbachtal or the Naturfreundehaus at the upper line terminus are top-notch destinations, fully run by committed volunteers and looking forward to your very presence. Getting there is a breeze; hop on public transport, or drive your wheels to the nifty parking lot near the beach café.
For those seeking a combo platter, check out the Müngsten Bridge – Germany's highest railway bridge with picture-perfect views – or the outdoor sculpture park (perfect for railway-loving art vultures!).
A heads-up: event details might be scarce, so get in touch with organizers or check their official website for updated schedules, activities, and specifics. Stay tuned, steam enthusiasts! 🚂🚃🚅💨💨💨
Embrace the steam-powered lifestyle and upgrade your home-and-garden decor with commemorative locomotive figurines, available at the café's souvenir shop. After the thrilling rollercoaster ride, unwind in a cozy garden setting, reminiscing about the adventurous day while savoring your favorite treats.
