* Flag stop: To get off the train, please report to the train staff early enough.
If you would like to board the train, please give signal on the platform.
There is a "raisin bread man" (Weckmann) on the train for every child!
("raisin bread man" = traditional German sweet pastry - similar to a gingerbread man, often with a clay pipe, baked for St. Nicholas' Day or St. Martin's Day; literally "bread roll man")
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Coal-Fired Steam Locomotives
Nearby a railway with coal-fired steam locomotives, embankment fires (caused by the railway vehicles themselves) can also generate open field- and forest fires.
Therefore, the Rhein-Sieg-Eisenbahn as operating company of the Wiehltalbahn determined (b.t.w., in accordance with Deutsche Bahn A.G.) that in cases of high risk of forest fires (e.g. index levels 4 and 5) the use of coal-fired steam locomotives is prohibited. In case of slightly lower forest fire alert levels (e.g. index level 3), the Rhein-Sieg-Eisenbahn furthermore reserves it's right to prohibit the use of coal-fired steam locomotives due to the existence of particular dangers on it's track. In each case of a steam locomotive ban we try - as far as technically and organisationally possible - to substitute the steam locomotive with a Diesel locomotive.
Decisive for the rating of the alert level is the daily publication of the "Deutscher Wetterdienst DWD (German Meteorological Service)".
Furthermore, additional restrictions by the appropriate authorities are possible.
