Brohl

It is always a very special and unforgettable experience for young and old to look out for St. Nicholas along the way.

At the destination station, St. Nicholas waits with his sack of presents for the train to arrive. He waves to the arriving train, greets each child personally and presents them with a richly filled Santa's bag.

The journey takes about two hours there and back from Brohl.

Ticket prices

Adults 19.50 Euro, children up to 11 years incl. Santa's bag 13.00 Euro, additional Santa's bag 9.00 Euro.

Registration is required!

Please note: The St. Nicholas trains only run on the departure times specified for the respective day!

Brohltalbahn operates steam locomotive 11sm for the wine festival to EngelnIt’s a premiere: With full steam, the almost 120-year-old steam locomotive 11sm will pull the Vulkan-Expreß for the first time on a regular schedule over the steep route up to Engeln on the first weekend of October. What passengers, train enthusiasts, and steam fans have long wished for will become reality during the wine festival in Oberzissen.Steam operation is regularly available on the Brohltalbahn. Usually on one to two weekends per month, the historic Mallet steam locomotive 11sm travels through the Brohltal between Brohl-Lützing and Oberzissen, as it will again on September 6/7. On the steep section starting in Oberzissen, powerful diesel locomotives then take over the trains for the journey over the 1:20 incline (equivalent to 5%) up to the Eifel heights at Engeln. Departure in Brohl for the steam trains is always at 10:15 AM and 2:15 PM.
