 The first narrow gauge railway, called the "Harcerska Kolejka Dziecięca" () in Poznań, was built in 1956 and was operated by Polish Scouting Association (see Children's railway).This long route connected Ogród Jordanowski and Łęgi Dębińskie ().During construction of Hetmańska Str, part of second road ring of Poznań, the authorities decide to move the railway to a new location where the line would not conflict with main communication arteries.
