Landless tractor plunges in Kleinraming: trees and streets damaged!

On Sunday, June 29, 2025, an extraordinary incident occurred in Kleinraming, which made the residents listen to. An abandoned tractor started his own business and fell down several hundred meters down over a steep meadow piece. This unexpected spectacle took place at 1:42 p.m. on Kohleisenweg, where the tractor even crossed Reitnerholzstrasse several times while cyclists were traveling. Fortunately, there were no injuries, but the incident caused extensive missions and damage to property that had to be remedied. According to [Meinverkirk] (https://www.meinbezirk.at/steyr-steyr-land/c-lokales/lenkerloser-traktor-stuerzt-ueber- Meiter-Hundert-AB_A7416599) the tractor finally came to a standstill.

The Kleinraming volunteer fire brigade was immediately alerted and moved out with a total of 28 emergency services and three vehicles. Extensive security and mountains were on the agenda. It turned out that the tractor had lost operating substances that had to be bound and removed properly. As a result, property damage was also found on several trees. The salvage and the cleanup took several hours and led to temporary closures of Reitnerholzstraße and Kohleisenstraße. The Garsten police were also on site to remove potential sources of danger and release traffic again. Oilspots were set up to ensure traffic safety during use.

incidents of the past few years

Kleinraming had already struggled with serious incidents in the past. For example, the Kleinraming fire brigade was called for a critical effort on May 11, 2022: a man had an accident in forestry work and tracted under a tractor. Fortunately, he was freed from residents, but he suffered serious leg injuries. The fire brigade, supported by the fire brigades Ebersegg, Sulzbach and Kürnberg, was in use with 15 men and two vehicles to provide first aid and to transport the injured to the hospital, such as Fireworld) reported.

In addition, it must be mentioned that the region has also experienced other environmental incidents in recent years, including massive oil pollution, which, for example, were treated in Olching in August 2024. These incidents illustrate how important the fire brigade's operations are to protect the security and the environment and to curb risks for cyclists and residents. A serious gas leakage in another city also caused an increased alert and confirmed the need for effective emergency plans, as is the case on [Fire Brigade Geiselbullach] (https://www.feuerwehr-geiselbullach.de/2024/14/massive-oel pollution-und gas exit/) In summary, the incident with the abandoned tractor is another example of the challenges with which the fire brigade is confronted in Kleinraming. Your quick reaction and the extensive measures have contributed to preventing worse and protecting the residents.
