News 2024.01 - Tram Strausberg

... from Berlin to the Lustgarten!

Strausberger Eisenbahn GmbH (STE) operates the small railway of the same name in the Brandenburg town of Strausberg to the east of Berlin. The in some places quite picturesque line 89 from the railway station to the town connects the metropolis of Berlin with it´s local recreation.

REK-STS-SET-M

For many years, the railway was operated with carriages taken over from Leipzig before the first Rekos arrived from Berlin-Schöneweide in the 1960s and 1970s. The connection to the S-Bahn and the oil crisis led to a sharp increase in passenger numbers.

The recos, which had previously only been operated as railcar and railer, became the classic Tw-Bw-Tw reversible trains that characterised the cityscape long into the 1990s! The new models of the bi-directional Rekos from HALLING Modelle recreate a typical set from precisely this era, when the adverts were already westernised and the reliable Rekos were still able to exude their eastern charm.

As always, the models are available as a high-quality floor model or as a mobile model for your layout. Whether as a single wagon or a slightly cheaper set, buy them while stocks last!

    ÖBB 052/S - The apiary! After ÖBB had closed the auxiliary workshop in Obergrafendorf and the maintenance of the narrow-gauge wagons was transferred to the main workshop in St. Pölten, there was a lack of a suitable shunting locomotive there in the spring of 1960. With the tried and tested confidence that makeshift is the longest lasting solution, a shunting tractor was quickly cobbled together from existing old materials. The engine came from a compressor, the gearbox from a standard-gauge tow train. The frame and the superstructure were built by themselves, based on the narrow-gauge wagons. After the ÖBB 052/S was taken out of service, the locomotive body was sold and served as an apiary in the Pielach Valley for many years!

    The return of the narrow gauge! After two years of sorrow, narrow gauge is finally returning to HALLING! It is with great pleasure that we can present the first two motorised H0e models! The approximately 11 km long Mixnitz-St. Erhard narrow gauge line was built in 1913 as part of the development of the magnesite deposits in Breitenau am Hochlantsch. The electric locomotives ‘E1’ and ‘E2’ with the Bo axle arrangement were used for the mixed operation of passenger and goods trains.

    A little piece of k.u.k. history! After the revolution of 1848, Venice was no longer acceptable to the Austrian navy as the main war harbour. The choice was between expanding Trieste, which already had an efficient commercial harbour, or the small fishing town of Pola, which at the time only had around 900 inhabitants, but an almost perfect natural harbour.

Today, it has been restored to perfection by the Mh.6 Club and is still in use as a crew and power wagon with the Mh.6 in the nostalgia train of the Mariazellerbahn, making it the longest-serving narrow-gauge freight wagon in Austria.
