Railway Days

The Railway Day website lists over 300 events: exhibitions, special trips, insights into archives and training courses, behind-the-scenes looks at workshops, stations, and factories, driving simulators, information stands, detective games, light railways, garden railways, raffles, and tours. At least in Koblenz, gauge 1 is also included.

The Allianz pro Schiene (Pro-Rail Alliance) has been coordinating Rail Day since its premiere in September 2022. The Federal Ministry of Transport (BMV) and the rail industry jointly launched the festivities. They are part of “European Mobility Week,” which takes place this year from September 16 to 22.

Some events require registration, and unfortunately, some are already fully booked. However, most events can be attended spontaneously without registration.

Here are a few examples (only German language):
