Who does the family ticket cover?

Two adults and their children, for €20. It works out cheaper than single tickets as soon as you bring two adults and one kid.

Can we see the museum without the trains running?

Yes. The museum usually opens without train rides on the Friday evening (5pm to 7pm) and the Saturday afternoon (2pm to 5pm) before each running day. Check the dates on the museum's homepage.

Can we board the train in Rebstockpark?

Yes, the museum lets visitors board in Rebstockpark and buy a ticket there when seats are free, which is handy if you parked by the park.

About

The Frankfurter Feldbahnmuseum looks after field railways: the small narrow-gauge trains once used on building sites, farms and in industry. On running days its historic trains carry families through Rebstockpark. The St. Nicholas edition is the museum's last running day of the year. One ticket covers as many rides as you like, so kids can get off to look at the engines and ride again.

Kids €5, adults €10, family €20
