As well as the more famous steam narrow gauge operations in Saxony, Germany, there are also some electric narrow gauge systems. This film opens with some scenes taken between the plant at Stassfurt and the quarry operation at Forderstedt. The operation is 2km long and runs off 520 volts. The factory produces around 430,000 tones of soda ash per annum which is used for the manufacture of glass and detergents as well as in the steel industry. Look out for cable and gravity shunting!
The last 2 scenes were taken on the 2km long 900mm gauge (600 volts) railway the runs between the Solvay factory at Bernburg and the quarry at Tagebau
