1		-The REAKT project (https://reakt.sh/ & https://www.schiene-m-l.de/) aims at developing new mobility concepts to reactivate rural rail lines. This project will evolve around developing an autonomous on-demand rail vehicle to flexibly provide service on single track lines. The **REAKTOR**. A prototype will be build in 1:32 scale, as well as a full scale version for the railway track Malente-Lütjenburg.

This project will evolve around developing an autonomous rail vehicle, the **REAKTOR**, to flexibly provide on-demand service on single track lines. A prototype will be build in 1:32 scale for 45 mm gauge, as well as a full scale version for the railway track Malente-Lütjenburg.
