Railway administration
The railway administration was a form of administration for railway lines in Saxony . A so-called railway administrator regulated numerous important tasks on site for subordinate railway lines, mostly narrow-gauge railways . In addition to the maintenance and monitoring of the entire system, the staff of the railway line and the operations service including the use of vehicles were also subordinate to the railway administration.
Normally a railway administration took over one or more routes, the only exception being the narrow-gauge railway Wilkau – Carlsfeld , where there were two railway administrations from 1893 to 1924.
The first railway administrations were abolished as early as the turn of the century through rationalization; the last railway administrations were dissolved after the establishment of the DRG at the end of the 1920s and their previous tasks were transferred to other administrative bodies.
