Kirnitzschtal Tramway - Future

Future

The regional plan for Oberes Elbtal/Osterzgebirge states:

"The Kirnitzschtalbahn is considered as an historically important means of transport for the development of parts of Saxon Switzerland and beyond the present termination points at the Elbe and at the Neumann mill."

This regional plan entry shows that the Kirnitzschtalbahn plays an important role in the tourism in Bad Schandau. An extension is unlikely, but the Kirnitzschtalbahn will remain an important part of the region.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    The primary function of myth is to validate an existing social order. Myth enshrines conservative social values, raising tradition on a pedestal. It expresses and confirms, rather than explains or questions, the sources of cultural attitudes and values.... Because myth anchors the present in the past it is a sociological charter for a future society which is an exact replica of the present one.
    Ann Oakley (b. 1944)

    Not only our future economic soundness but the very soundness of our democratic institutions depends on the determination of our government to give employment to idle men.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    He who asks fortune-tellers the future unwittingly forfeits an inner intimation of coming events that is a thousand times more exact than anything they may say. He is impelled by inertia, rather than curiosity, and nothing is more unlike the submissive apathy with which he hears his fate revealed than the alert dexterity with which the man of courage lays hands on the future.
    Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
