Hönnetalbahn

Lu:

A railroad along the Hönne? Then the stagecoach would be passé, and driving through the narrow gorge would be more of a pleasure. And the whole world would be able to explore the Klusenstein, the "Seven Virgins" or even the huge maw of the Balver Cave comfortably from the train. But also the inexhaustible lime deposits of my homeland could be developed and quickly transported away. We would then get to the Ruhr much faster!
