Eastersunday the 8th of april 2012, I took this photo of the steamengine No.

(ID 10620)


Eastersunday the 8th of april 2012, I took this photo of the steamengine No. 20 of the museum railway IHS Selfkantbahn at the most western part of Germany. It is an  5.5 Km long in linedistance museum railway company, with there end and begining stations Gillrath and Schierwaldenrath near the city of Geilenkirchen. They present a lot of narrow gauge locomotivs, passangercars mostly the are 3rd. class coaches with woodenbanches and coalstoves and frightcars of the 19th and 20th century. While a ride on this railway between the eastersunday and last week of october you've got the feeling, that you where gone back to the early years of the 20th century .

On a grey and rainy 22 August 2026 steam loco 91 896 stands in the depot of the Sächsisches Eisenbahnmuseum at Chemnitz-Hilbersdorf. The weekend of 22-23 August 2026 saw their 33.Heizhausfest (works festivities) with a loco parade and a nice exhibition of their own stock and guest locos.

UEF's  75 1118 stands at Villingen (Schwarzwald)  after having taken fresh water on 16 May 2026. Bacause steam loco don't  run anymore in standard traffic, moststations have discarded their steam locomotive maintenance equipment, likt water hoses, so nowadays, for fresh water on steam locos, the local fire brigade are drafted in. But when one considers the scenes those brave souls of the fire brigade sometimes have to confront (like being to late to save all the lives...) one can imagnine that replenishing a steam loco's water supply is a rather more joyful assignment.
