In last years autumn we had still hoped to be able to finish the restoration works on the societie's own SKL before the end of 2020, but Corona also messed up the time table of this project.

We can report pleasant things from Morsbach in two different ways.
On the one hand, an agreement regarding the future layout and the sizing of the station area could be made with the municipality after extended negotiations.

After an enforced break due to the coronavirus, a second catalogue of suggestions for the reactivation of German railway lines was published by the 'Society Of German Transportation Companies (VDV)'. In this catalogue, the Wiehl valley railway is ranked among the top 3 of all examined lines.

 After a break enforced by the corona pandemic, members of the society resumed the restoration works on the societie's own SKL in May 2020. In doing so, the team obtained help by two new co-workers that are no members of the society yet. This certainly will help the restoration to pick up speed.

'Kömpel' Halt is rather counted among the unfamiliar railway stations in the 'Upper Berg County (Oberberg)'. It is part of the branch line of the Wiehl valley railway that leads from Waldbröl-Hermesdorf to Morsbach through the pastoral Zielenbach valley and is also known as 'Wisser valley railway (Wissertalbahn)'. Currently only maintenance trains of the Wiehl valley railway run on this line.
