Construction progress in September 2006
The 4th Rathener Felsenfest took place on September 23rd and 24th, 2006 and our construction site was open to curious visitors. Many railway enthusiasts from near and far and many locals used this last opportunity to visit the railway worlds in the health resort of Rathen in all construction phases, from "construction site" to "almost finished".

With an energetic troop, the railway worlds in the health resort of Rathen are rapidly entering the second construction phase. At sometimes over 37 degrees, the time limit was also reached in July. Our new gardener Beatrice has worked seamlessly into the subject since July 1st and is an asset to Eisenbahnwelten. Our Kappo Ralf Kühler has had a serious motorcycle accident and is unfortunately out for about 4 weeks.

Get well soon - Over 1.3 km of rail substructure, 120 m Elbe bed, 40 bridges and viaducts, approx. 1.8 km of track, over 100t of concrete, 600m of lawn edging stones, 200m of path and 300t of stones were built in the area. With the knowledge that the construction time outdoors only lasts about 3 months and the opening date is getting closer, everyone gives their best.
In this way, we would like to express our great praise to all employees, interns, sponsors and volunteers for their achievements so far and encourage everyone to really step on the gas until the opening in order to achieve our common goal of building a garden railway system of this size that is of this size. to be reached on time.
There is still a lot to be done and we are convinced that this team will achieve the goal.

LGB Festival 125 years of Ernst Paul Lehmann in Nuremberg
On July 15th, 2006, Rene and Rainer spent a day at the LGB Festival in Nuremberg and distributed promotional items from the Eisenbahnwelten to the visitors. The interest was great and in the monkey-like heat stickers, business cards, pens and gummy bears went away like hot cakes.
The highlight for Rene and Rainer was, in addition to a factory tour, the expansion of our contacts to the Massoth company (Mr. Rösch in the picture) and a question time with the developer of the LGB MZS software, Mr. Schwarz.

On May 13th, 2006 from 11 am to 6 pm there were guided tours of the construction site for those interested as part of the family day "Märchenhaftes Rathen". Over 150 curious guests listened to the explanations of Lothar and Rainer.

Today, on March 31, 2006, the Elbe has a water level of over 7 meters and the horror of the floods of 2002 is omnipresent again.
For the next few days, the apex is expected to be over 8 meters. Fortunately, the Railway Worlds are high enough, but unfortunately many people in the Elbe Valley are not so lucky!
