Between Woinem and Berkene

(these are the names of the towns in the local dialect)

This train runs for about 18km between Weinheim an der Bergstraße und Fürth im Odenwald. It was opened in 1895. The first part of the line – the part between Weinheim and Birkenau, less than 3km – needed two bridges and three tunnels.The photo shows “Tunnel 3”. There is a train running hourly and for many commuters, students and adults, it is the lifeline to access the metropolitan area just beyond the hills of the Odenwald.
