The giant is awake

Night and in return darkness has erupted in the corners of the roundhouse of Haapamäki museum locomotive society, where the mood seems to be quiet and freezing. But that is interrupted soon. From the shed number 2, the majestic roar of 1880 horsepower MAN diesel motors start their mechanical symphony as the 120 ton class Dr12 diesel electric locomotive number 2216 prepares to take its first in the freezing outside world. Even being near the massive behemoth, the coldness and darkness are things that won't even compete with the nature of the Dr12 as a giant is awake!
