  • Welcome to a ride on Germany’s steepest mainline adhesion railway, the Höllentalbahn.
    Literally translated, Höllentalbahn would be "hell’s valley railway" in english. The origins of the name are not clear. One theory is that French soldiers, who often had to march through the deep dark valley may have given it this name. At the exit of the valley, there is a town called “Himmelreich” or “heaven” in english - which may have been named as a result of the relief of having passed through.
    Another theory is that the name stems from the word “Höhle”, meaning cave. Whatever the origin, it’s definitely an interesting part of the German black forest.
    The railway also has a very interesting history which actually went on to influence France’s implementation of their 25 kV 50 Hz power system.
    Construction of the line from Freiburg to Neustadt was completed in 1887. Due to the steep gradients, portions of the line operated as a rack railway until 1933. The racks were removed with the introduction of improved brakes and more capable steam engines in 1933, namely the heaviest tank engines in German service at the time.
    The line we’re starting on, the “Dreiseenbahn” was opened in 1926, after construction delays due to World War I. It was electrified in 1936, together with a section of the Höllentalbahn to Freiburg. At that time, electrified lines were still quite rare in Germany. What made it even more notable, was the experimental electrification with 20 kV and 50 Hz - the first 50 Hz system worldwide (operating at the same frequency as household electricity). This required specially adapted locomotives.
    After the defeat of Germany at the end of World War 2, south western Germany was largely occupied by the French. After evaluating the 20 kV, 50 Hz system of electrification of the Höllentalbahn, France also electrified a line with the same system, which served as a basis for the later electrification of their current 25 kV 50 Hz network.
    About a year before this was filmed, many of the original catenary posts were replaced, however many of the original posts and elements from 1936 are still in use to this day!
    Unfortunately a few stations closed in the late 70’s and early 80’s on the line. Posthalde & Höllsteig formerly had a passing loop and were equipped with mechanical signals. Today, practically the whole line uses the modern Ks signal system.

    Another amazing video from you. At Titisee, time stamp 25 minutes, there is a heritage train to our left with an old electric motor, what I believe is called a crocodile, leading a collection of old coaching stock.

    • @wandajackson3410
      @wandajackson3410 Před 6 dny +3

      Correctly discovered 😊: The old electric locomotive is the so-called "German crocodile" - the E 94 series
      But more famous and probably better known is the stronger Swiss crocodile, the Ce 6/8" series 😀
      Crocodile because the two front sections with the bogies were movable and could turn away from the main locomotive body when cornering in order to be able to negotiate tighter curves...
      This and the green coloring probably led to this nickname

    Strictly speaking, this trip is NOT the "Höllentalbahn", but the so-called "Dreiseenbahn" from Seebrugg to Freiburg!
    During the trip to Freiburg, the three lakes "Titisee", "Windgfällweiher" and "Schluchsee" can be seen several times 😊
    The actual "Höllentalbahn" runs from Freiburg to Donaueschingen and branches off at Titisee station, as can be seen in the video.
    In any case, an interesting, very nice trip in the best weather - thank you very much 👍🙏

    Passenger only? The start down to Titisee is a very light weight track build. The use of VAV type track supports/sleepers know for use on poor ground to improve side load distribution and acceleration/braking loads into the ballast. (which looks thin.?). Nice views following the river.

      As far as I know, there is no longer any freight traffic on the "Dreiseenbahn" shown here between Freiburg and Seebrugg, but on the "Höllentalbahn" between Freiburg and Donaueschingen, which branches off from the "Dreiseenbahn" at the Titisee station shown in the video! There is a paper factory in Neustadt which is served several times 😀
      By the way, the train does not run along a river!!! In keeping with the name "Dreiseenbahn", which means translated „Three lake railway“, the three lakes are called "Titisee", "Windgfällweiher" and "Schluchsee" 😊

      🙂The Old German word Aha, Middle High German Ahe, means nothing else than spring or water. It can be assumed that the settlement was named by its founders as a "settlement on the water, at the source of the Aha Stream". See also Aach, the name of several rivers, or the German city Aachen.
