Subscription to the Plandampf and the information brochure
Current Information on the Dampfspektakel Easter 2010 (status: 01.03.2010) 175 years of Railways in Germany and by deadline for subscriptions to the Plandampf we have almost reached the level of cost recovery. Therefore, we have decided to proceed with the event. Late comers are requested to subscribe as soon as possible. The narrow gauge Brohltalbahn has confirmed operation of visiting steam locos 99 7203 from Amstetten and ‚Franzburg' from Bruchhausen-Vilsen during the event. The train schedules will be published soon at www.dampfspektakel.info and will be included to our information brochure for the general event (Programmheft). Further to the passenger specials the Brohltalbahn will offer an interesting programme on their dual gauge section in Brohl harbour. The DB Museum works special passenger trains between Koblenz (museum) and Brohl from April 2 to 5 with connection to the narrow gauge specials. This will enable visitors to do round trips Trier – Koblenz – Brohl – Engeln – bus transfer – Kaisersesch – Gerolstein – Trier. On April 6 the Dampfspektakel will finish with a loco parade at Gerolstein roundhouse during daylight hours. At the evening before a night foto session is planned on April 5 at the same location. Due to lack of interest in the 'PremiumSteam' this offer (reservation of window seat in first coach behind steam loco) will be dropped. If you are interested in the Plandampf book you find the necessary details on our home page www.revierdampf.de. With best regards |

Modernisation of German railways continues, and as a result more lines become uninteresting for Plandampf each year.

„It was very wonderful event. I felt it was more valuable than 60 Euro for a day.“ Photo positions Odenwald-Hohenlohe for Google Earth
Looking back, most of the participants are happy. The Plandampf concept with authentic rolling stock from the 70s on lines with old infrastructure, combined with marketing for the local train operator, was successful and will be continued |
