Along the Moselle valley

The Moselle Valley is one of the most beautiful and romantic landscapes in Germany. Characterized by its mild climate and lined with vineyards, the Moselle flows through one of the most charming river valleys in Europe. Our route begins at the main station in Koblenz and then leads in a wide left curve to Moselweiß. Here there is a large freight station with a very extensive track system.

After Moselweiß, the route crosses the Moselle for the first time over the Gülser Bridge. After Güls, the route follows the left bank of the Moselle to Cochem, passing well-known wine towns such as Winningen and Löf.

Behind Cochem, the route goes into the Kaiser Wilhelm Tunnel. Our route represents the state of the railway line around 2012. During this time, some construction work was underway to modernize it, including the extension of this tunnel. Our stand still shows the old two-track tunnel tube with the construction work on the first of the two newly planned tunnels.

After the tunnel, the route goes via Ediger-Eller and Neef to Bullay. When leaving Bullay, you drive over the famous double-decker bridge and then over the hillside viaduct near Pünderich. The branch line to Traben-Trarbach branches off here, while the main line leaves the Moselle valley and continues via Wittlich towards Trier. At Quint, just before Trier, the route then meets the Moselle again. From here, it goes via Ehrang with its large depot and freight station over the Moselle bridge near Pfalzel to the main station in Trier. Also included are the industrial area and the port in Trier-Pfalzel.

The rolling stock on our route includes an electric locomotive of the BR 189, which is mostly used for freight transport on this route, and the diesel railcar of the BR 628/928. The railcars run on the branch line between Bullay and Traben-Trarbach.
