Heidelberg Mountain Railway vehicles
Vehicles stopping at the Heidelberg Castle station of the lower mountain railway. Between 1961 and 1962 the section was rebuilt and new cars provided in order to handle the volume of traffic to Heidelberg Castle; at this time new stations were built at Kornmarkt and Heidelberg Castle. The section was closed between October 2003 and March 2005; during the closure period the existing cars were scrapped and replaced by these new and larger cars to a modern design, and Kornmarkt and Heidelberg Castle stations were again rebuilt. Photo taken Sunday 27 July 2014.
