The Deutscher Eisenbahn-Verein e. V. (DEV) is a club based in Bruchhausen-Vilsen. Its primary goal is to preserve a small railway with all its facilities as a living open-air museum. This initiative provides a unique opportunity for visitors to experience the historical railway system in its original form.
Operating Schedule of the Museum
The museum operates the Bruchhausen-Vilsen– Asendorf route on weekends from May to September and in December. The majority of these journeys are made using steam trains, providing a unique and authentic experience for visitors. This is a great opportunity for tourists to experience a piece of history firsthand.
Vehicle Collection at the Museum
The museum boasts a collection of more than 100 vehicles built between 1886 and 1964, the majority of which are still operational. These vehicles are primarily stored in several halls in Bruchhausen-Vilsen and Heiligenberg. Visitors have the opportunity to view these historical vehicles on operating days, adding a unique dimension to their museum experience.
