The scenic railway from Ebermannstadt to Behringersmühle was converted into a heritage railway when commercial services stopped. Today, the 16 km, standard-gauge line operates steam locomotives pulling historically restored passenger coaches. The St. Nicholas rides are also popular with children, although you have to register early.
The Dampfbahn Fränkische Schweiz e. V. or DFS is a German museum railway operated by a registered society in Ebermannstadt, in a region of northern Bavaria, Germany, known as Franconian Switzerland.
