\nThe peat extraction is supplied and disposed of by a Regner light railroad in shuttle operation as in the 60s\/70s.
\nIn the depot, a steam locomotive shuttles from the engine shed to the coaling station and back.
\nAlmost all of the buildings were built by the locomotive builder, the station has a fully equipped delicatessen and a station caf\u00e9, a soccer pitch, camping site and wild nature are also part of the layout.

Passion IIm is a modular layout that represents an imaginary metric line and imaginary railroad companies. The rolling stock consists mostly of LGB models that have received new paint jobs. The weathering gives a realistic impression. The modular concept allows countless possibilities to adapt to the size of the room. Each module plant is so unique. The layout always has terminus stations and never runs the daylong its rounds. The single track connects a terminal station with a hidden reversing loop, which corresponds to a staging yard. Functional signaling controls the trains. The focus is on the countless shunting maneuvers, which are fascinating for the audience. The return of the steam engines is done with a turntable at the terminal stations. The rolling stock is equipped with Kadee couplers. In both presented stations, the remote uncoupling process by means of magnets is explained to the audience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5016,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32,35],"class_list":["post-3183","specials","type-specials","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-model-railroad","category-topics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/specials\/3183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/specials"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/specials"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3183"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/specials\/3183\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5471,"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/specials\/3183\/revisions\/5471"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5016"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ima-friedrichshafen.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
