Welcome
The Crispendorf holiday railway rolls at Whitsun
It's train after train, round after round, that's the motto again this Whitsun at the Crispendorf
Holiday Country Railway. On Whitsun Sunday and Whitsun Monday, the little trains run from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.,
come sunshine, cloud cover, or rain. The trains depart from Festwiese station at intervals of up to 20 minutes
for a circular tour through the Bison Valley. In addition to coffee, cake, and ice cream, the café on the platform
also offers hot snacks and a small lunch. Of course, our bouncy castle is a must.
The Crispendorf Holiday Country Railway is one of the former pioneer railways of the GDR and is now operated by volunteer members of the
Crispendorf Holiday Country Railway Association. With over 4,000 visitors annually, maintaining and operating a
railway with over 1.7 kilometers of track, two locomotives, and various carriages is a challenge.
Like any association, we are always happy to receive active support, both financially and in terms of personnel.
We are particularly short of train drivers. Creative and energetic individuals are also in demand.
The range of tasks extends from the website and graphic design of flyers, railway technology,
buildings and track systems, to train operations.
There are enough opportunities to find the right job for everyone. Please contact us if you would like to support us.
