Aachen-Maastricht Railroad  

 

 

         
 

Railway crossing in Limmel at the Balijeweg. At this spot once was a little roadside station on the Aachen-Maastricht Railway. Next to the use of the millworkers to the factories in Maastricht, it was het directly situated at the backyard of one of the founders and owners of the railway. Convenient when you get visitors.

Parallel to the original line in 1865 the connection Maastricht to Sittard was opened. From Meerssen until Maastricht this part of the railway is 4-track.
