Anten–Gräfsnäs Railway, Heritage railway in Alingsås Municipality, Sweden

The Anten-Gräfsnäs Railway stretches for 12 kilometers between the villages of Anten and Gräfsnäs, featuring vintage trains and traditional station buildings along its route.

Established in 1900, this railway line formed part of a larger network connecting Gothenburg and Trollhättan, serving as a vital transportation link for local communities.

The railway functions as a working life museum, with local railway enthusiasts operating restored trains and maintaining the historical equipment for educational purposes.

Visitors can experience train rides from June through August, with additional activities available at both terminals, including a railway museum in Anten and castle ruins in Gräfsnäs.

The railway preserves a steam locomotive from 1911, which continues to transport passengers along the same tracks it served over a century ago.
