Now the grooves in barnfels are supposed to fix it again

At the most recent meeting of the obertrubach municipal council, the proposal to establish a play area in the barnfelser burgstrabe was discussed in detail. A written application was submitted, which five residents had signed. Up to now, there have been six very pronounced cross gutters built into the road, which were to be removed in the course of reconstruction work. Three are already gone.

With this, residents feared, traffic could speed up unacceptably. According to the municipality, however, the redesignation as a playground requires that the recreational character of the area prevails. This could happen, for example, with plant drugs. These had to be arranged so that motorists on the road could not travel faster than walking speed.

The northern section alone, from nurnberg to hof and on to the saxon border, had a length of 203 kilometers, and the opening ceremony took place 160 years ago, on the 25th of june. August 1848, the birthday of king ludwig I. From bavaria. He also gave the line its name: ludwig-sud-north railroad.

Evidence of those days still exists today, even in front of our house. The tilting trains of the railroad and also of the "agilis" still travel the two sandstone bridges in the main meadows between kulmbach and mainleus. The ravages of time have not only gnawed at the buildings, they have literally chewed on them. This is why DB netz AG is planning a comprehensive refurbishment this summer.
