Arbeitsgemeinschaft Geesthachter Eisenbahn, Railway museum in Hamburg, Germany
The Geesthacht Railway Association operates historic train rides on a 14-kilometer route between Hamburg-Bergedorf and Geesthacht through northern German landscapes.
Founded in 1975, the association purchased the steam locomotive Karoline in 1980, which was originally constructed in 1945 for regional transport services.
The museum preserves regional railway heritage through regular demonstrations of vintage locomotives and original BGE carriages from different periods of German rail history.
Train tickets range from 3 to 7 euros for single journeys, with return trips costing double and children between 4 and 14 years paying half price.
The museum organizes special Christmas rides with Santa Claus in December, using their collection of both steam and diesel locomotives on scheduled dates.
