Summer festival in the KulturLokschuppen: History meets modernity in Neumünster!
On August 9th, the KulturLokschuppen Neumünster opened the gates to a spectacular summer festival that attracted visitors from the entire region. In addition to a variety of historical exhibits, the event offered numerous modern guest vehicles that would make every railway lover's heart beat faster. Locomotive Report reported that the historic steam locomotive 042 271-7 and the WFL locomotive 03 2155-4 were prominently featured among the exhibited vehicles.
On a tour of the KulturLokschuppen, visitors were also able to admire the impressive exhibit DB 249 001, which was a topic of conversation with its different color schemes. The modern locomotive 291 238-8 “Sunrail” from Metrans and the 203 107-8 from Nordic Rail Service (V100-005 “Lübeck”) also impressed the railway fans.
Attractive arrival and supporting program
There were numerous connections available for anyone traveling by train: DB, nordbahn and AKN trains stopped at Neumünster station. Maybe some of you also treated yourself to the shuttle rides with the VT 628 museum railcar, which ran every half hour from the main train station to the event area. The departure times were well coordinated and made the journey to the festival particularly pleasant.
Precise planning was also required when it came to the parking situation. The main parking lot for the summer festival was in the southern parking lot of the Holstenhallen, which is just a few minutes' walk from the event. Another small parking lot on Brückenstrasse was reserved for people with disabilities and bicycles. The event was easily reached via Justus-von-Liebig-Straße.

The highlight of the day was the driving simulator, which many visitors enthusiastically tried out. But the child-friendly garden railway as well as the historic motor and agricultural vehicles also made the eyes of young and old light up. With wonderful weather, the summer festival became a festival of encounters, with lots of exchange and joy.
Visitors were able to book their tickets online in advance, which prevented long waiting times at the box office and ensured everything ran smoothly. The website of the KulturLokschuppen also offers a lot of information about the next events, which is sure to have something for every taste.
In this way, the summer festival in the KulturLokschuppen Neumünster was not only a feast for the eyes for railway lovers, but also a real community experience that once again shows what is possible in Neumünster.
