In Lana Burgstall, the "Apfelexpress" used to branch off towards Oberlana. The monument locomotive on the bank of the Adige river, as well as the restored old iron bridge next to it, are reminders of this railway, which unfortunately ceased operations in 1974. The Lana-Burgstall–Oberlana local railway was a standard-gauge and electrified local railway. Remnants of the railway are still partially preserved, including the iron truss bridge over the Adige near Lana-Burgstall station. This lay on land along the Adige for a long time, but was moved about 200 meters south in 2012 and – completely restored – spanned over the river again. It now connects the Adige cycle path, which runs parallel to the Bolzano–Meran railway line, with the opposite bank of the Adige. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lokalbahn_Lana-Burgstall%E2%80%93Oberlana
