Palatine Ludwig Railway Company
The Palatine Ludwig Railway Company (Pfälzische Ludwigsbahn-Gesellschaft) was a German railway company founded in 1844 in the Kingdom of Bavaria. The company planned and operated the Palatine Ludwig Railway (Ludwigsbahn) between Ludwigshafen and Bexbach in the area around the Rhein, a region of southwest Germany that was once part of the German Empire. The railway should have served in particular the transportation between Saar region coal industry from the Bexbach Revier to the Rhine and from there to the emerging industrial centers in the south of Germany and Switzerland.
