Gotland Hesselby railway, Heritage railway museum in Dalhem, Sweden

The Gotland Hesselby railway extends 6.5 kilometers through the Swedish countryside, connecting the stations of Hesselby and Roma with vintage train services.

Originally constructed in 1902, the Hesselby station served as the main intermediate stop on the Slite-Roma railway line until operations ceased in the 1950s.

The railway museum displays an extensive collection of transportation artifacts, including four steam locomotives, three diesel engines, and eighteen passenger carriages from different periods.

Visitors can experience train rides from June to September, with departures from Hesselby station at 11:00, 13:00, and 14:30, using preserved diesel locomotives from the 1950s.

The station grounds feature a restored workshop, train sheds, and a turntable, while the 1939 magazine building houses exhibits of uniforms, timetables, and photographs.
