A good place to take a canoe or paddle board for miles of fun on the water. Notice the smoke in the near distance as it creeps into this river area. The smoke created by a nearby wheat field going up in flames. At the moment it does not concern these children or the dog but it was to get worse. &lt;br /&gt;

We are about half way up Loch Eil here from Fort William and this single-line track is part of the West Highland Railway line that runs from Oban to Mallaig. (Technically it runs from Glasgow to Mallaig via a detour to Oban, a total distance of 205miles )&lt;br /&gt;
It would have been nice to see one of the occasional steam trains that runs along here on its way to Mallaig via the Glenfinnan Viaduct but we were still a couple of weeks early for that. PiP&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Here we see part of the Bidean nam Bian mountain range with two of its sisters to either side. These are three iconic ridges—Fàidhl, Narnain, and Coire nan Lochan—that make up the Bidean nam Bian mountain range. &lt;br /&gt;
The area is a popular destination for hikers and climbers, with several challenging routes to "bag" nearby Munros. The landscape was shaped by ancient volcanic activity and glaciers, creating the steep, rocky cliffs visible here&lt;br /&gt;

A place of wild grasses, lakes and mountains which also has the distinction of being one of the coldest places in Britain during our winters. &lt;br /&gt;
Here we see the small Loch (Lochan) of ‘na h-achlaise’ with the mountain ‘Stob a’ Choire’ at 945 m behind. This is part of the Black Mount traverse. &lt;br /&gt;
Notice the paddle-boater on the water. PiP's   &lt;br /&gt;

This welcome seat just below the hilltop castle of Dinas Bran enjoys great views. How long it has been here, who knows? A nice cool breeze is to be had here to cool us down after the climb so far but that breeze can turn, no doubt to a freezing gale at times, and not only in winter.&lt;br /&gt;
The view here is part of the panoramic walk belonging to the mountain called Creigiau Eglwyseg (455 m). This is a landscape of prehistoric cairns and archaeological sites dating from the Bronze Age. We actually did a lot of that walk on our last visit here in 2017 but now our age interferes with a present adventure. See PiP&lt;br /&gt;
Have a perfect day.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

___________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Allzuoft ist es so, daß die Bahn scheinbar nicht mehr gebraucht und zurückgebaut wird, weichen muß. So war es auch zu DDR-Zeiten, auch wenn die Beweggründe für solche Entscheidungen damals andere waren, als heute. Oft genug fehlten die Mittel, die Erhaltung der Bahnanlagen zu sichern. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Zitat: "Ab Mitte der 1960er Jahre war auch für diese Schmalspurbahn die Stilllegung vorgesehen. Wie bei vielen Eisenbahnstrecken erfolgte auch bei der Schmalspurbahn Wolkenstein – Jöhstadt eine schrittweise Stilllegung und Demontage der Anlagen. Im Frühjahr 1982 wurde der Güterverkehr zwischen Steinbach und Jöhstadt wegen des schlechten Streckenzustands eingestellt. Am Freitag, dem 13. Januar 1984, verkehrten die letzten Reisezüge zwischen Niederschmiedeberg und Jöhstadt, nachdem die zuständige Bahnmeisterei die Verantwortung für einen Weiterbetrieb auf den maroden Gleisen nicht mehr übernehmen wollte." &lt;a href="https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmalspurbahn_Wolkenstein%E2%80%93J%C3%B6hstadt" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmalspurbahn_Wolkenstein%E2%80%93J%C3%B6hstadt&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In den Jahren 1987/1988 wurde auf dem ehemaligen Bahnhofsgelände in Jöhstadt ein Wohnblock errichtet. Das Gebäude befand sich zwischen dem Empfangsgebäude und dem Lokschuppen. Beigesterung wird das damals nicht bei allen Menschen in der Region ausgelöst haben, steht doch dieser Wohnblock wie ein Fremdkörper in der Landschaft.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Im Sommer 1990 fand sich recht schnell eine Gemeinschaft zusammen, die sich den teilweisen Wiederaufbau der Schmalspurbahn als Museumsbahn zum, Ziel setzte. Es wurde die Interessengemeinschaft Preßnitztalbahn e. V. gegründet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Zitat: "Auch wenn das Bahnhofsgebäude inzwischen durch die IG Preßnitztalbahn e. V. genutzt wird, fällt der Blick aber immer auch auf den 1988 errichteten Wohnblock, der über die Jahre schier unumstößlich zu sagen schien, dass ein wiederhergestellter Bahnhof ein Traum bleiben wird." &lt;a href="https://www.pressnitztalbahn.de/verein/spendenaktionen/neuer-bahnhof-joehstadt-erste-neue-weichen" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;www.pressnitztalbahn.de/verein/spendenaktionen/neuer-bahnhof-joehstadt-erste-neue-weichen&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dank der IG Preßnitztalbahn, natürlich auch mit der Unterstützung der Eisenbahn-Bau- und Betriebsgesellschaft Pressnitztalbahn mbH läuft nun das Großprojekt „Neuer Bahnhof Jöhstadt“ Es zielt auf die umfassende Rekonstruktion der historischen Gleisanlagen. Derzeit läuft die entscheidende Phase. Unmittelbar nach dem diesjährigen Pfingstdampf wurde begonnen, den störende DDR-Wohnblock auf dem Gelände abzureißen, um die Gleislücke zwischen dem Lokschuppen und dem Empfangsgebäude zu schließen.&lt;/div&gt;</description>
