Hot bottles
151 165 of private EVU SaarRail leads a loaded hot bottle train DGS 91309 out of the steel works at Dillingen. The mill at Dillingen is the last surviving blast furnace in Saarland and now supplies raw iron for the arc mill in Voelkingen as well. Saar Rail has the contract for the bottle trains and internal plant operations at Voelkingen. The train shuttles back and forth between the two plants all day with a fairly predictable schedule, making for a productive day of railfanning.
