The section of the route between Velden and Moosen is very well developed and also very flat. If you want, you can go very quickly here. The only thing that slows you down a little are the crossing roads, as cyclists always have to give way. There is also an intersection near Oberbabing that slows down bicycle traffic by putting up barriers/chicanes...

As a reminder of the former railway line that used to run past here, there is a locomotive and a signal here. Unfortunately, the locomotive is not in very good condition on the outside. There is a table next door that invites you to linger.

In 1996 the locomotive was sold together with the Ka 4909 and the Ka 4979 to the BEM - Bavarian Railway Museum in Nördlingen. In June 2000, the village beautification association took over the small locomotive from the BEM. Together with a semaphore signal, the locomotive has stood as a monument locomotive in Dorfen in a small green area on the former line to Velden since 2001. https://eisenbahn-museumsfahrzeug.de/index.php/deutschland/staatsbahnfahrzeug/verbrennungsmotorlokomotiven/bauart-einheitskleinlokomotive-lg-ii/koe-4910
