The Angelner Dampfeisenbahn, also referred to as the Angelner Eisenbahn or Angeln-Bahn, is a museum railway that provides rides on the Süderbrarup–Kappeln route through Angeln. This railway offers a unique opportunity to experience the scenic beauty of the region while enjoying a ride on a historic train. The museum railway operation was started in 1979 by the Friends of Rail Transport Flensburg, founded in 1973.
After a period of inactivity due to insolvency, the museum railway rides were resumed in the summer of 2005. This marked a new chapter in the history of the Angelner Dampfeisenbahn, allowing visitors once again to enjoy the unique experience of a ride on this historic railway.
Starting from July 17, 2021, seasonal train pairs have been operating on Saturdays and Sundays on the Kappeln–Süderbrarup– Eckernförde route. The trains used are diesel railcars of the DB series 628 or the DB series VT 98, which make a stop at the newly established Lindaunis stop. This provides an additional opportunity for tourists to explore the region and enjoy the scenic beauty of the route.
