On a tour of discovery in the historical Burgdorf locomotive depot

In the BLS Foundation's depot, you can take a guided tour of historic locomotives and admire historical artefacts from BLS history. Visitors can also get first-hand experience of being a locomotive driver in an advanced simulator. An experienced train driver will provide insights into their profession and assist you in manoeuvring the train through the actual landscape.

The old depot can be rented out for events.
