Mansfeld Mining Railway
Mansfeld Mining Railway, Heritage railway in Mansfeld District, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany.
The Mansfeld Mining Railway spans 11 kilometers with narrow gauge tracks of 750 millimeters, connecting multiple former mining locations in Saxony-Anhalt.
The railway network began operating in 1885, expanding from 5.5 kilometers to 95 kilometers by 1930 to service 13 copper mines and two smelteries.
