The old train puffing further…

A group of nerdish men in Dalhem have continued to play with train and switched to play with real trains. They have done that so good that the old railway station has became a popular attraction on Gotland, but then they started to think it wasn’t enough to just drive the train to the Oak… They continued to lay rail to Munkebos and then Tule and after that I guess it was impossible to not want to go all the way to Roma.
Today Radio Gotland reports that the group has been granted with 4,3 millions sek to continue to lay rail all the way to Roma.
I lived in Roma 1968–1980. Now and then we took our bicycles and went for a tour passing Roma Kungsgård and then going by the old railway embankment to Tule station. I know the area and it will get so fun to be able to go between Dalhem and Roma by train for the first time in my life. Like my mother and father could while we still had trains on Gotland.
You can read more about Gotlandståget on their homepage, but unfortunately their English version is very short. There fore I recommend you to also check the Swedish version and at least look at the pictures.
