Steam in the rainforest
Despite the drizzle and the salty humid haze I decided to hike into the woods west of Sellin. There is a stop in the grade, aptly named Sellin West. It's a nice show when a train stops to pick up passengers, even more so when the rails are wet. The cute 99 4802 was my favorite during the week on Rügen island for it was always seeming to struggle with the load compared with the hefty 2-10-2 tank engines.
So here it is hammering up the grade only moments after leaving Sellin West. The summit in the forest at km 52.6 is a hidden gem well worth visiting.
