Description

The line

The track of Doller Railway was inaugurated on June 30th 1869 by the “Compagnie de Chemin de fer de l’EST” (East Railway Company). The line is 14 km long and stretches between Cernay and Sentheim with a ramp of 18 per 1000 maximum. The line consists of:
- 6 stations
- 1 depot with 3 tracks
- 18 level crossings, 3 of them with manual gates
- 21 points
- 24 524 sleepers
- 147 336 screws

You may have heard about an authentic steam train, plumed with smoke, panting in front of four wooden cars from the train of Palavas somewhere between Cernay St André and Sentheim. This surprising convoy starts in Cernay St Andre and strolls across the romantic campaign foothills of the Vosges Mountains every weekend.

You can hear the thumping sound of the exhaust as the locomotive goes faster, before stopping in the station. An agent steps down the train and stops the cars with a red flag while another one turn the crank and closes the level crossing.

The train goes past the dim of Michelbach, and stops again. Before going over the Henry Bridge, make sure your hands and your head do not stick out of the windows, there are only 15 cm between the bridge and the window frames.

In Sentheim, the passengers will find a lovely station and its concourse where the volunteers of the association offer fresh drinks and some souvenirs.

The site of Sentheim has retained its original appearance, you can buy tickets at the ancient ticket office, and the waiting room is heated with an old fashioned wood stove. During your trip, you will discover a lot of antiquated objects, disappeared today.
