Selke Valley Railway
The Selke Valley Railway is the name of the 1,000 mm railway in the lower Harz mountains that originally belonged to the Gernrode-Harzgerode Railway Company. The Selke Valley Railway line passes through: ⁕Quedlinburg - Gernrode - Alexisbad - Harzgerode ⁕Alexisbad - Stiege - Hasselfelde ⁕Stiege - Eisfelde Talmüle. The track and the river Selke share a valley between Mägdesprung and Albrechtshaus, and hence the name was given to the track. In Spring 1946, all but a small section of the Selke Valley Railway was dismantled and the resources were recycled and carried off to the Soviet Union. In Fall 1946, out of a need for a way to transport fluorospar, the track was rebuilt and ran until there was a short supply of fluorospar in 1950. In 1946, the GHE was expropriated and was taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn of the GDR in 1949. The section Lindenberg - Stiege was not rebuilt until 1983. On February 1, 1993, the Harz Narrow Gauge Railways, which had already acquired the Harz Railway and the Brocken Railway, took over the Selke Valley Railway from the DR.
