The Dresden suspension railroad is back in operation following a successful inspection. From 10 a.m. on Saturday, the train will once again connect the Loschwitz district with the heights of Oberloschwitz. It will initially operate from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., with the start of the summer timetable on March 28 from 9.30 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The drive motor will be replaced during the spring overhaul. According to Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe, this went without complications. In regular operation, the electric hoisting machine produces up to 80 kilowatts and moves the cable from which the two carriages are suspended. The previous motor was replaced by an equivalent reserve motor.
