At a time when DMUs/EMUs/BEMUs/BMUs/DEMUs and other new train sets take over passenger traffic apace, it is nice to see hourly loco haulage on the RE2 Karlhsruhe<=>Konstanz onthe schwarzwald Line -and with many an advertising loco at that! Like 146 236 hauling out an RE2 service out of Villingen (Schwarzwald) to Konstanz. The loco advertises the Black Forest Hiking Trail thatcomes close to the railway tracks (but never illegally!).

Reason to party -not only because the Hornberg viaduct -animportant piece of infrastructure on the Black Forest Line- is more than 100 years old, but also because  at a time, DMUs/EMUs/BEMUs/BMUs/DEMUs and other new train sets take over passenger traffic apace, it is nice to see hourly loco haulage on the RE2 Karlhsruhe<=>Konstanz onthe schwarzwald Line -and with many an advertising loco at that! Like 146 238 pushing out an RE2 service out off Villingen (Schwarzwald).

BM Bahndienste hybrid loco 248 077 runs round at neuwied on 30 April 2026. Sadly, someone found the loco's  colour scheme not sufficient attractive and decided to deploy his/her own ideas...

DB Cargo (still, after having sold 15+ locos to Railpool) 193 321 runs through Maastricht toward Sittard in a training ride. This loco probably came from Kinkempois shunting yard near Liége in Belgium.

WFL operates many replacement trains in Germany with loco hauled stock when the newly ordered EMUs/BEMUs/DEMUs are -again-  malfunctioning. On 23 April 2026 ex-DB Cargo 145 039 pushes an RE service to Bremen Hbf through Diepholz.

WFL operates many replacement trains in Germany with loco hauled stock when the newly ordered EMUs/BEMUs/DEMUs are -again-  malfunctioning. The 1960s seem to have returned at Krefeld-Oppum on 20 August 2026 with TRI 110 448 calling there with the famous RB37 to Krefeld Hbf. Mo-Fr this service always exists of N-Wagen (dating from the 1960s), but traction is mostly ex-DB Classes 145 or 111 so to find 110 448 on this service is a rare joy indeed.

TRI operates many replacement trains in Germany with loco hauled stock when the newly ordered EMUs/BEMUs/DEMUs are -again-  malfunctioning. On 20 August 2026 ex-DB 111 130 pushes an RB to Bottrop Hbf out of Oberhausen Hbf. Class 111 entered service with DB in 1974 and are now being disposed of -and speedily bought and reliveried by private operators like TRI and Smart rail.
