Killesberg railway

The Killesberg railway is a miniature railway in the Killesbergpark in Stuttgart, Germany.

Opened with the park in 1939, the 381 mm (15 in) track travels in a 2294.35 meter loop around the park. Diesel locomotives pull trains around the park daily during the summer months whilst steam locomotives are used for special occasions.

The park now maintains four locomotives, of which two are powered by diesel and two by steam. "Blitzschwoab" is the oldest of the two diesel engines, manufactured in 1950. "Schwoabapfeil" was manufactured in 1992. The steam engines "Tazzelwurm" and "Springerle" were delivered to the park in 1950 to replace the two that originally operated on the line until they were removed to Leipzig during World War II.

The Killesbergbahn was formerly operated by the Stuttgart Fair company and today by a promotion association.
