Robert Dujka, one of the founders of the Industrial Railways Museum which operate
narrow-gauge line from Zbysov to Babice u Rosic and rescuing old narrow-gauge
locomotives and cars, invited us at unofficial open of the season 2013. The museum
is situated in area of the former mine Jindrich II on the edge of the small tow
Zbysov. There is a former terminal station of the local railway, which collected
coal from surrounding mines to station Zastavka u Brna (once Segen Gottes or God's blessing).
