55,000 francs are missing: the restoration of the historic steam locomotive Rosa is taking longer and costing more than planned
The Eurovapor association is restoring the historic steam locomotive Rosa, which ran between Heiden and Rorschach until 2016. The association has already received many donations for this, but there is still a lack of 55,000 francs.
The steam locomotive Rosa is being repaired and is scheduled to run between Rorschach and Heiden again by 2025 at the latest.

Actually, the Eurovapor association only needed 4,500 francs to be able to pay for the renovation of the historic Rosa steam locomotive. The association based in Sulgen, which operates throughout Switzerland, is committed to the preservation of historic rail vehicles. He originally expected that repairing the locomotive would cost around 100,000 francs. The association has received almost the entire amount, 95,500 francs in donations, so far. But now it is clear: the repair will be a lot more expensive.
