Bad Bramstedter Moorbahn, Field railway in Bad Bramstedt, Germany

A 600mm gauge railway system extends through 1.4 kilometers of track, connecting a medical facility to nearby peat extraction areas in Schleswig-Holstein.

The railway commenced operations in 1931 with an investment of 39,964 Reichsmark, primarily serving the Rheumaheilstätte Bad Bramstedt for peat transportation.

The railway system, named after Oskar Alexander, the first director of Rheumaheilstätte, now functions as a museum line preserving local industrial heritage.

Visitors can experience train rides from spring until Christmas on Sundays between 10:00 and 16:00, with extended hours until 17:00 during summer months.

The railway once crossed over the Altona-Kaltenkirchen-Neumünster Railway via a swing bridge to deliver coal and oil to the facility's boiler house.
