Narrow Gauge Railway Rogów – Rawa – Biała (colloquial: Kolej Rogowska) – the first and only museum narrow gauge railway in the Łódź province. Previous names were Rogow Feldbahn, Rogowska Kolej Dojazdowa and Rogowska Kolej Wąskotorowa. The name currently used also functioned in the interwar period. Its beginnings date back to 1915, when German troops built a military field railway with a 600 mm gauge connecting Rogów with Biała Rawska. The narrow gauge railway was used to supply the German front with food, weapons and ammunition. It was used to transport soldiers and evacuate the wounded. After the end of World War I, the Rogów – Rawa – Biała Narrow Gauge Railway was taken over by PKP. In 1954, it was converted to a 750 mm gauge. In 1996 it was entered into the register of historical monuments. In 2001, PKP decided to liquidate it. It was saved from destruction by the Foundation of Polish Narrow Gauge Railways (FPKW), which restored it to a state of technical efficiency.

Worth a while, great to add on your route via Gostomia and nearby forests on the opposite side of the river - awesome gravel highways and good roads.
