The publishing department is affiliated to the Zittau Narrow Gauge Railway and considers itself a voice of the Saxon Steam Railway Company. It aims to fill the gaps in the reporting from Saxony and the publishing of regional railway media found in large specialist publishers. SSB Medien, as media partner of the STEAM RAILWAY ROUTE, also embraces various tourism topics. In doing so, it uses the “DAMPFBAHN-Magazin” (a magazine for Saxon steam railways) as a main medium for comprehensive reports on current events, local history and attractions along the Saxon steam railways. The quarterly DAMPFBAHN-Magazin is complimented by several special magazines about the different Saxon holiday regions and their steam railways.
The “DAMPFBAHN-Magazin Spezial” series has and will include the topics of model steam railways as well. Another part of the publishing activities of SSB Medien consists in the publishing of specialist books and the well-kown “Schmalspur-Alben” (narrow gauge albums).The book series of “Schmalspur-Album Sachsen” presents the past of the Saxon narrow gauge railways in a unique picture documentation. The picture quality in these large-format books is so fascinating that you will be taken back in time upon viewing the pictures.
