Steam Festival

Steam Festival at Fond-de-Gras – Enter the fascinating world of steam!

Step back in time for a weekend and relive the golden age of the railways!

An impressive collection of steam-powered vehicles awaits you: from miniature models to narrow-gauge locomotives and full-size engines, discover the diversity of railway gauges. Whether you’re a railway enthusiast or just curious, this event promises fun for all ages!

For this special occasion, iconic locomotives from Train 1900 – ADI 12, ALT3 and Energie 507 – will be in action, along with two guest stars: the majestic Elna 158 from Belgium’s Chemin de Fer des Trois Vallées and Tubize 2069 of the association Stoomtrein Dendermonde-Puurs (Belgium), for a truly unforgettable spectacle.

The “ Förderverein Dampfmaschinenmuseum Hanau-Großauheim (Germany)” will showcase extraordinary machines: steam tractors, saws and even a steam-powered balloon blower – a journey through the mechanical ingenuity of the last century!

Feldbunn Dol (Luxembourg) will be exhibiting its narrow-gauge locomotives, while visitors of all ages can take a ride on a miniature steam tractor.
