Ohsabanan, Working life museum and heritage railway in Värnamo Municipality, Sweden
Ohsabanan is a railway museum with working trains on a narrow-gauge track that runs between two stations. The site has historic locomotives, passenger cars, an old stone warehouse with tools, and several industrial buildings to explore.
The railway was built between 1907 and 1910 to move goods between a factory and a station. After it stopped operating, the site was turned into a museum for visitors.
The site shows how people worked together in this place long ago. The old workshops and houses tell the story of a community built around the industrial works.
Train rides run during summer months and the Christmas season. On-site you will find locomotive sheds, picnic areas, and a station café to rest between activities.
The railway operates on one of the narrowest gauges ever built, giving it a special place in railway history. This unusually small size makes the trains remarkable to see up close.
