The first train reaches Dammberg

Dammberg, 1 April 1858

From our own correspondent at Dammberg. The first train reaches Dammberg. The journey from Vellmar takes 8 hours. Speaking to this journal, a retired sergeant of the Marsh Regiments said: 'They were very orderly about it.'

The event is expected to be spoken of at the next market day, when the farmers come in from the surrounding country and the price of grain is settled for the month.

Those concerned: Dammberg (location); Church Way (street).

The Grand Chancellor, Jorn Wendl, received the report at the Chancellery without comment.

The affair is much discussed in the town, and not only there.
