feldbahn
A ''Feldbahn'', or ''Lorenbahn'', is the German term for a narrow gauge field railway, usually not open to the public, which in its simplest form provides for the transportation of agricultural, forestry (ドイツ語:''Waldbahn'') and industrial raw materials such as wood, peat, stone, earth and sand. Such goods are often transported in tipper wagons, known in German as ドイツ語:''Loren'', hence such a railway is also referred to as a ドイツ語:''Lorenbahn''.
==Military use==
During the First World War, the enormous logistical demands of trench warfare led to the development of military narrow gauge railway or ドイツ語:''Heeresfeldbahn'' networks, also referred to as trench railways. Throughout World War I, the British and French also used trench railways, called War Department Light Railways and Decauville Railways respectively. However, the German approach was less improvised and more permanent. With each successful advance, the British and French forces faced ever lengthening supply lines, while the Germans retreated deeper into their homeland. As a result, the ドイツ語:''Feldbahn'' was an organic growth of existing agricultural, industrial and mining railways. After the war, much remaining trackage and rolling stock was put to use in more conventional narrow gauge applications throughout Europe.
