Grünstadt–Altleiningen Railway
The Grünstadt–Altleiningen railway or Leiningen Valley Railway was a 10.7 kilometre long branch line from Grünstadt to Altleiningen in the northeastern Palatinate Forest of Germany. The line opened in 1903. In 1967, passenger services were withdrawn and, in the period that followed, the section between Maihof-Drahtzug and Altleiningen was lifted. Goods traffic continued on the remaining section until the end of 2005.

Verbandsgemeinde Grünstadt-Land
A Verbandsgemeinde (; plural Verbandsgemeinden) is a low-level administrative unit in the German federal states of Rhineland-Palatinate and Saxony-Anhalt. A Verbandsgemeinde is typically composed of a small group of villages or towns. Rhineland-Palatinate The state of Rhineland-Palatinate is divided into 163 Verbandsgemeinden, which are municipal associations grouped within the 24 districts of the state and subdivided into 2,257 Ortsgemeinden (singular Ortsgemeinde) which comprise single settlements. Most of the Verbandsgemeinden were established in 1969. Formerly the name for an administrative unit was ''Amt''. Most of the functions of municipal government for several municipalities are consolidated and administered centrally from a larger or more central town or municipality among the group, while the individual municipalities (Ortsgemeinden) still maintain a limited degree of local autonomy. Saxony-Anhalt The 11 districts of Saxony-Anhalt are divided into ''Verwaltungsgeme ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Deutsche Gesellschaft Für Eisenbahngeschichte
The German Railway History Company (''Deutsche Gesellschaft für Eisenbahngeschichte'') or DGEG is a society concerned with the history of the railways. The objectives of the society are: * to generate and maintain interest and understanding for the history of the railways within the framework of overall history, * to foster scientific studies in this area, * to preserve and maintain important cultural and technological monuments. History The society was founded on 22 April 1967 in Karlsruhe and was entered on the official register of clubs and societies there. Members of the society were able to gradually restore the Bochum- Dahlhausen locomotive shed and its surroundings to their former condition after their closure by the Deutsche Bundesbahn on 1 August 1969. Because the arrival of railway vehicles was imminent in 1972 and Dahlhausen was still not totally ready, the locomotive shed next to the workshop building of the old Neustadt/Haardt locomotive shed was rented. In 1981 t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Eistalbahn
The Eis Valley Railway (german: Eistalbahn) is a branch line in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate, that runs through the Palatine Forest. It runs from Grünstadt in a southwesterly direction through the valley of the Eisbach (or "Eis") to Enkenbach. The section from Grünstadt to Eisenberg was opened as early as 1876 by the Palatine Northern Railway Company. The iron ore industry in and around Eisenberg gave the line considerable importance for the transport of goods, whilst passenger services played a rather secondary role. The remaining stretch of line to Enkenbach was not completed until 1932 under the direction of the Deutsche Reichsbahn. After passenger services had been withdrawn in 1976, strategic considerations during the Cold War prevented its complete closure. Goods traffic between Eisenberg and Enkenbach ended in 1988. In the period from 1994 to 2001 the line between Grünstadt and the Eiswoog reservoir was re-opened; the remaining section, however, stayed ...
