Door Corona en familieomstandigheden, waren we niet in staat om bij Plandampf in het Werratal te zijn. Maar na zoveel jaar kruipt het bloed toch waar het niet gaan kan. Daarom besloten mijn vader, mijn oudste zoon en ik in de meivakantie naar het voormalige Oost-Duitsland af te reizen om daar te genieten van smalspoor stoom.
Als eerste bezochten we de Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, waar door werkzaamheden aan de Mandaubrücke in Zittau zelf, alleen het traject vanaf Zittau Vorstadt naar Jonsdorf/Oybin werd bereden. Daarnaast was na 68 jaar Bertsdorf weer 'Lokeinsatzstelle'. Een unieke gelegenheid dus.
Due to Corona and family circumstances, we were unable to join Plandampf in the Werratal. But after so many years, the blood creeps where it can't go. That is why my father, my eldest son and I decided to travel to the former East Germany during the May holidays, to enjoy narrow-gauge steam.
First we visited the Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, where due to work on the Mandaubrücke in Zittau itself, only the route from Zittau Vorstadt to Jonsdorf/Oybin was used. In addition, after 68 years Bertsdorf was again 'Lokeinsatzstelle'. So a unique opportunity.
Aufgrund von Corona und familiären Umständen konnten wir leider nicht bei Plandampf im Werratal sein. Aber nach so vielen Jahren kriecht das Blut dahin, wo es nicht hin kann. Deshalb haben mein Vater, mein ältester Sohn und ich beschlossen, in den Maiferien in die ehemaligen DDR zu reisen, um Schmalspurdampf zu genießen.
Zuerst besuchten wir die Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, wo aufgrund von Arbeiten an der Mandaubrücke in Zittau selbst, nur die Strecke von der Zittauer Vorstadt nach Jonsdorf/Oybin befahren wurde. Außerdem war Bertsdorf nach 68 Jahren wieder Lokeinsatzstelle. Also eine einmalige Gelegenheit.
On April 23, 2006, I rode a Speeder from Cordele to Plains, Georgia on a trip sponsored by NARCOA (aka North American Rail Car Owners Association). Since I don't own a Motor Car (aka a Speeder) , I rode with a friend who owns two Motor Cars. These are some photos that I took during my trip on the Heart of Georgia Railroad (aka: HOG).
I took This Photograph Near Cordele, Georgia, of a Heart of Georgia Freight Train at a Crossing with two Locomotives and some Freight Cars. I took this Photograph on the Monday after the NARCOA Trips of Saturday & Sunday. The Train consists of two Locomotives, a Lease Unit LLPX 3109 and Heart of Georgia Locomotive Number 1540.
Orange Locomotive Number 3109 is a Leased Unit belonging to Locomotive Leasing Partners. It is a General Motors (aka: GM), Electromotive Division (aka: EMD), GP40 (aka: General Purpose Model 40) Leased from Locomotive Leasing Partners (LLPX Number 3109), while Blue & Yellow Locomotive is Heart of Georgia Locomotive Number 1540, an EMD GP40, which I believe was built in 1966 as Canadian National Number 4007.
The Heart of Georgia is a Short Line railroad created in 1999 to lease and operate 177 miles (285 km) of track owned by the Georgia Department of Transportation between Mahrt, Alabama and Vidalia, Georgia, in the United States . My Photographs cover the section between Plains and Abbeyville. Georgia.
In de zomervakantie van 2023 moesten mijn vrouw en ik wegens familie omstandigheden halsoverkop naar Aberdeen, Schotland. Tijdens een van de laatste dagen daar, bleek de Caledonian Railway een speciaal evenement te hebben; de Caledonian Railway Sulzer Diesel Gala. Diverse door diesellocomotieven getrokken treinen reden tussen Brechin en Bridge of Dun. Op diverse plekken langs de lijn heb ik gefotografeerd en natuurlijk ook zelf weer een ritje gemaakt. Toch nog een geslaagde dag geweest.
During the summer holidays of 2023, my wife and I had to rush to Aberdeen, Scotland, due to family circumstances. During one of the last days there, the Caledonian Railway turned out to be having a special event; the Caledonian Railway Sulzer Diesel Gala. Several diesel locomotive-hauled trains ran between Brechin and Bridge of Dun. I took photographs at various places along the line and of course also went for a ride myself. Still a successful day.
Während der Sommerferien 2023 mussten meine Frau und ich aus familiären Gründen eilig nach Aberdeen, Schottland, reisen. An einem der letzten Tage dort hatte die Caledonian Railway ein besonderes Ereignis; die Caledonian Railway Sulzer Diesel Gala. Zwischen Brechin und Bridge of Dun verkehrten mehrere von Diesellokomotiven gezogene Züge. Ich habe an verschiedenen Stellen entlang der Strecke Fotos gemacht und bin natürlich auch selbst mitgefahren. Dennoch ein erfolgreicher Tag.
Elk jaar wordt met Hemelvaart de Nationale Stoomtreindag georganiseerd. Meestal zijn we dan bij de SGB of de RTM te vinden. Dit keer wilde ik, naar aanleiding van foto's die ik in Fb had gezien, eens naar de VSM. Samen met mijn oudste zoon op pad naar Loenen, waar we bijna een privé showtje goederenwagens rangeren hadden. Een groot deel van de ochtend hebben we bij de VSM doorgebracht, waarna we in de middag naar Zwolle zijn gegaan om daar nog de 1700 in dienst te bekijken.
Every year the National Steam Train Day is organized during Ascension Day. We can usually be found at the SGB or the RTM. This time, based on photos I had seen in Facebook, I wanted to go to the VSM. Together with my eldest son we went to Loenen, where we almost had a private show of shunting freight wagons. We spent a large part of the morning at the VSM, after which we went to Zwolle in the afternoon to view the 1700 in service there.
Jedes Jahr wird am Himmelfahrtstag der Nationale Dampfzugtag organisiert. In der Regel sind wir beim SGB oder beim RTM zu finden. Diesmal wollte ich, basierend auf Fotos, die ich auf Facebook gesehen hatte, zum VSM gehen. Zusammen mit meinem ältesten Sohn fuhren wir nach Loenen, wo wir fast eine Privatschau von Rangiergüterwagen hatten. Wir verbrachten den größten Teil des Vormittags im VSM und fuhren dann am Nachmittag nach Zwolle, um den dort im Einsatz befindlichen 1700 zu besichtigen.
Penn Central ex New Haven Railroad locomotives EMD GP-9 # 7534 & ALCO RS-11 # 7668 & FM H16-44 # 5169 lead a westbound manifest freight train on an express track while passing tower SS38 at Stamford, Connecticut, 1970. Locomotives from three manufactures are shown in this scene with PC numbering on all. The firstbox car coupled to the rear locomotive is from the Maine Central. Highway I-95 can be seen in the background.
New Haven Railroad ALCO DL-109's & PA-1's along with numerous passenger cars on yard storage tracks plus an outbound DL-109 led passenger train are seen at the Dover Street Yard in South Boston, Massachusetts, 1949. You can see the much lower city skyline as it was back in the day in this scene. There were numerous trains that ran into and out of Boston's South Station that were serviced in the Dover Street Railroad Yard.

Als full time vader en echtgenoot sta ik, op de incidentele hoofdlijnritten van de SSN of VSM en de evenementen na, bijna niet meer langs het spoor. Wat ik aan NS (of andere maatschappijen) materieel fotografeer is vaak bijvangst van stoom of museummaterieel waar ik voor op uit was getrokken. Gelukkig komt het nog wel een enkele keer voor dat ik even tijd heb, maar dat is helaas maar sporadisch. Dit keer stonden wij voor de Stoomtreindagen van de SSN in de omgeving van Moordrecht. Deze dag was het weer minder; bewolkt maar tegen het eind van de dag brak het zonnetje toch nog door. De DE3 kwam ook nog langs en kon ik nog mooi meepakken
As a full-time father and husband I hardly make pictures of regular trains. Almost only when the SSN or VSM has one of their rare main line trips, I am able to catch some regular trains too. So what I catch with my camera of the NS (or other companies) trains is often a side catch of steam or museum material passing by. Fortunately I do find occasionally some time to make pictures. This time we were in the vicinity of Moordrecht for the SSN Steam Train Days. This day the weather was not that great. Cloudy, but at the end of the day luckily the sun appeared. The DMU of Crew 2454 also passed by and I was able to make some pictures of this set also.
Als Vollzeitvater und Ehemann verbringe ich, abgesehen von den gelegentlichen Hauptstreckenfahrten der SSN oder VSM und den Veranstaltungen, kaum noch Zeit am Streckenrand. Was ich an NS-Geräten (oder anderen Firmen) fotografiere, ist oft Beifang von Dampf- oder Museumsgeräten, die ich gekauft habe. Glücklicherweise kommt es immer noch gelegentlich vor, dass ich etwas Zeit habe, aber das ist leider nur sporadisch der Fall. Dieses Mal standen wir für die SSN Dampfzug Tage im Raum Moordrecht. An diesem Tag war das Wetter schlechter; bewölkt, aber gegen Ende des Tages brach die Sonne durch.
Dit jaar met mijn twee zonen naar het jaarlijks evenement 'Sporen naar het verleden' geweest. Naast de eigen loc 4389, waren dit jaar stoomloc 5 'Enkhuizen' van de SHM, de 23 023 van de SSN en Crew 2454 met hun 2454, Mat '64 stel 904 en mP 3029 aanwezig. Ook maakten de omC 909 en 910 enkele ritten. Dit jaar besteedden we vooral aandacht aan de omC 909 en 910. Het was weer een erg geslaagd evenement.
This year I went to the annual event 'Traces to the past' with my two sons. In addition to our own locomotive 4389, steam locomotive 5 'Enkhuizen' of the SHM, 23 023 of the SSN and Crew 2454 with their 2454, Mat '64 set 904 and mP 3029 were present this year. The OMC 909 and 910 also made a few journeys. This year we paid particular attention to the OMC 909 and 910. It was another very successful event.
Dieses Jahr war ich mit meinen beiden Söhnen bei der jährlichen Veranstaltung „Spuren in die Vergangenheit“. Neben unserer eigenen Lokomotive 4389 waren in diesem Jahr auch die Dampflokomotive 5 'Enkhuizen' der SHM, 23 023 der SSN und die Besatzung 2454 mit ihrer 2454, Mat '64 Set 904 und mP 3029 anwesend. Auch die OMC 909 und 910 machten einige Fahrten. Besonderes Augenmerk haben wir in diesem Jahr auf die OMC 909 und 910 gelegt. Es war wieder eine sehr erfolgreiche Veranstaltung.
Atlantic Coast Line EMD diesel locomotives F2A 324 & F2B 324-B are on the middle platform track with the Southland train 132, which is being prepared for departure at the downtown ACL station in St. Petersburg, Florida, April 1956. The train seen in the background on the thrid track is train 38 (aka: The Jax Mail) a local train that handles REX, Baggage and Mail shipments between Saint Petersburg and Jacksonville daily, which will be departing later in the evening after the Southland has departed first. Track one nearest the camera is awaiting the early evening arrival of the southbound ACL West Coast Champion streamliner train 191. Check out the tall fan housings on the F2 diesel locomotives. The EMF F2 locomotive were purchased for secondary train use and pinch hitting on the streamliners when needed and both the A & B-units had steam generators installed. On one particular day during the mid 1950's I observed a F2A locomotive along with 2 FB units lead the streamlined ACL West Coast Champion into the station. You can see a REX truck loading items into a baggage car on the left side of the photo near the walking girl. Of interest is the fact that the upper headlight on the A-units had a gyrating red Mars Light installed. This downtown station lasted in service until 1963, when the new station opened on the Northside of the city.

I had to hold my breath before each shot so the condensation would dissipate. The local run had paused so the conductor could check the pneumatic lines and so they could pick up a few empty lumber cars from the siding there.
Hired in for a second time by Colas due to Loco shortages, West Coast Railway Company owned 37668 heads through Allenmore, approaching Tram Inn, working the 3S59 09:00 Hereford to Swindon Transfer Yard Rail Head Treatment Train with Colas 66846 on the rear.

In mijn jongere jaren trok ik er wat regelmatiger op uit, als ik een vrije dag had, of als er een speciale rit of evenement op het programma stond. In die tijd fotografeerde ik voornamelijk met dia-rolletjes, die ik nu in aan het scannen ben en aan het bewerken ben (oplichten, vuil verwijderen, verscherpen) om ze weer toonbaar te maken.
Dit keer was ik op pad met de Achterhoek express getrokken door de SSN ÖBB 52.3879. Deze reed in het kader van 150 jaar Spoorwegen in Nederland. Onderweg heb ik op diverse plekken foto's gemaakt van deze rit en andere treinen.
When I was younger, I used to get out a little more regularly, when I had a day off, or when there was a special ride or event planned. At that time I mainly photographed with colour slide rolls, which I am now scanning and editing (lightening, removing dirt, sharpening) to make them acceptable again.
This time I was travelling with the Achterhoek express pulled by the SSN ÖBB 52.3879. This ran because of te celebrations of 150 years of Railways in the Netherlands. Along the way I took pictures of this ride and other trains at various places.
Als ich jünger war, bin ich regelmäßiger
rausgezogen, wenn ich einen freien Tag hatte oder wenn eine besondere Fahrt oder Veranstaltung geplant war. Ich habe damals hauptsächlich mit Diarollen fotografiert, die ich jetzt scanne und bearbeite (aufhellen, Schmutz entfernen, schärfen), um sie wieder ansehbar zu machen.
Diesmal war ich mit dem Achterhoek Express unterwegs, gezogen von der SSN ÖBB 52.3879. Diese Fahrt wurde im Zusammenhang mit 150 Jahren Eisenbahn in den Niederlanden gefahren. Unterwegs habe ich diese Fahrt und andere Züge an verschiedenen Stellen fotografiert.
Elk jaar organiseert de Stoomtrein Goes Borsele (SGB) het evenement Sporen naar het Verleden. Dan komen er diverse stoom- en diesellocomotieven of treinen in actie.

New Haven Railroad ALCO RS-2 road switcher 0503 is moving a Pullman-Standard lightweight 6 wheel truck stainless steel dining car in the yard at Boston, Massachusetts, 1960. You can see the engineer is his cab window and on the front walkway there appears to be a switchman or another employee. It is nice to see that this ALCO RS-2 is still in its earlier day paint scheme and not in McGinnis Livery.

Denver & Rio Grande Western eastbound Rio Grande Zephyr, led by F9A locomotive 5771 and two F9B's, is seen on a curve while a TOFC freight train with a caboose is being pushed by a SD45 helper in Utah, Summer 1980. Again on this overcast day there was not much available sunshine and it rained on and off as we proceeded eastbound to Denver, our final destination. In this area of the railroad there appear to be three main lines present. In the foreground there is a pipe support bridge that crosses over what appears to be a small river.
New Haven Railroad ALCO PA-1 # 0782 and DL-109 lead a passenger train along the Shore Line while crossing a stone overpass, ca early 1950's. This train has three headend cars along with a mixed consist of lightweight and heavyweight cars. There appears to be a platform area at this location. This was a B&W photo that I colorized.
This photo came from the Internet and the original photographers name is unknown.

New Haven Railroad FM H16-44 locomotive # 1608 along with an ALCO RS-11 & FM H16-44 are seen while leading a westbound manifest freight train in a snow storm past tower SS38 at Stamford, Connecticut, 1968. The snow is really falling quit hard and the temperature is probably in the twenties, while Bob Hughes took this photo from his warm second floor tower location. To the far left the signs over highway I-95 are hard to read due to the heavy snow fall.

Denver & Rio Grande Western westbound Rio Grande Zephyr, led by EMD F9A locomotive # 5771 and F9B locomotives # 5762 & # 5763, is stopped for fuel, water and possibly for some food supplies at the station in Grand Junction, Colorado, Summer 1980. In this view you can see the whole eight car train including the dome lounge-observation car at the rear end.
Grand Junction is the mid way point location in the trip between Denver and Salt Lake City where the locomotives of westbound or eastbound Zephyr's are fueled and watered. The passenger cars also take on water at this location plus any required food or drink for the diner or lounge car are supplied here too. At this stop some minor required repairs can also be made or a substitute locomotive may be called upon if necessary.
'Sporen naar het Verleden'is het jaarlijkse evenement bij de SGB. Diverse eigen locomotieven vaak ook gast materieel is aanwezig om dit evenement op te luisteren. Dit jaar was de 'Blauwe Engel' van het spoorwegmuseum aanwezig. Dit dieseltreinstel is vernoemd naar Marlene Dietrich, die op het moment dat het voor het eerst in Nederland op de rails kwam, wereldberoemd was.
Diverse treinen reden tussen Goes en Hoedekenskerke. Natuurlijk veel gefotografeerd langs het spoor, maar een ritje in de Blauwe Engel en de stoomtrein kon natuurlijk ook niet achter blijven. Verder hebben de kinderen zich uitstekend vermaakt in de speeltuin. Het was een geslaagde dag uit voor de hele familie.
'Tracks to the past' is the annual event at the SGB. Various own locomotives and often also guest locomotives are present to liven up this event. This year the 'Blue Angel' of the Dutch railway museum was present. This diesel train set is named after Marlene Dietrich, who was world famous when this train got into service in the Netherlands.
Several trains ran between Goes and Hoedekenskerke. Of course I made a lot photographs along the track, but a ride in the Blue Angel and the steam train could not be left behind. Furthermore, the children had a great time in the playground. It was a nice day out for the whole family.
'Spuren in die Vergangenheit' ist die jährliche Veranstaltung der SGB. Verschiedene eigene Lokomotiven, oft auch Gast Züge, verleihen dieser Veranstaltung Glanz. In diesem Jahr war der 'Blaue Engel' des Eisenbahnmuseums anwesend. Dieses Dieselzugset ist nach Marlene Dietrich benannt, die weltberühmt war, als es in den Niederlanden zum ersten Mal auf die Schienen kam.
Mehrere Züge fuhren zwischen Goes und Hoedekenskerke. Natürlich habe ich viele Fotos entlang der Strecke gemacht, aber eine Fahrt mit dem Blauen Engel und dem Dampfzug konnte auch nicht zurückgelassen werden. Außerdem hatten die Kinder eine tolle Zeit auf dem Spielplatz. Es war ein erfolgreicher Tag für die ganze Familie.
NHRR DEY- 5 class ALCO S-2 switcher 0600 along with another ALCO switcher are seen spotted on a siding in Boston, Massachusetts, April 7, 1959. Switcher 0600 is wearing the old standard New Haven Railroad paint scheme while the switcher behind is wearing the McGinnis livery.

New Haven Railroad DL-109 diesel locomotive # 0748 along with another lead a stopped eastbound regional passenger train while it is at a station platform in Providence Station, Rhode Island, mid late 1950's. At this platform location fuel and water can be supplied to the locomotives as required and an employee is seen doing so. This station presents interesting views of trains all due to the curved platform tracks. By this time period the DL-109's were not so often used on the regional and first class trains. There appears to be a club combine, a couple of parlor cars and then a diner or grill car on the train ahead of the coaches.

La linea de la Robla se construyó con muy pocos medios. En muchas zonas la via está tendida practicamente sobre el terreno natural. En esas zonas no hay ni trincheras ni terraplenes.
En primavera parece que el tren circula sobre un cinta tendida sobre los campos. Continuación del seguimiento del regional en la semana santa de 2007.

This railway was built 1891. In some places the roadbed was laid over the terrain. There aren't trenches or embankments. The train travels so slowly that I can take two pictures in almost 30km.
Best seen large.
New Haven Railroad DEY-4 class GE 44 ton switcher 0801, an early version with side radiator grills in the all dark green paint scheme, is seen at an unknown location, ca mid late 1940's. this version of the GE 44 ton locomotive was delivered to the railroad in 1941. It appears that this may be the location for passenger station. The people seen in this scen may be passengers or railroad enthusiasts.

Denver & Rio Grande Western westbound morning Rio Grande Zephyr is seen at a platform with the soon to be departing train at Denver Union Station, Colorado, Summer 1980. An employee, perhaps an electrician, is walking past the combine and probably is checking out all equipment for operation. We arrived at the station a bit earlier than necessary in order for me to take a few photos prior to departure time. In this view the whole train can be seen at the platform.
Penn Central GE ex NYC U25B locomotive # 2521 and PC U33B locomotive # 2910 are seen performing switching work by tower SS38 at Stamford, Connecticut, summer 1971. In the background you can see a portion of the downtown area buildings and also highway I-95. You also can see the engineer and the fireman through the cab windows. There also appears to be someone being seen in the fireman's window of the trailing U33B. Bob Hughes was able to capture this image on film from his tower location.

New Haven Railroad GE 44 ton locomotive 0818 is seen spotted on a siding at an unknown location, 3-20-1955. The locomotive is one of the later versions with the radiator grills situated at the hood nose end rather than along the front side of the hood. The location for the photo may be in a small town, because of the nearby home and church building being seen.

Elk jaar organiseert de MBS een Najaarsstyoomdag. Dit jaar kwam ook de 162 in actie met een net opgeknapte boxcar. Ook werden er weer enkele slagen gereden met de Wismar railbus. Het was helaas erg regenachtig, wat echter wel weer bijdroeg aan de sfeer.
Every year the MBS organizes an Autumn Stoom Day. This year, the 162 came into action with a recently refurbished boxcar also. There were also some rides with the Wismar railbus. Unfortunately it was raining a lot, although it did add to the atmosphere.
Jedes Jahr organisiert die MBS einen Autumn Stoom Day. In diesem Jahr kam der 162 auch mit einem kürzlich renovierten Güterwagen zum Einsatz. Es gab auch einige fahrten mit dem Wismar-Schienenbus. Leider war es sehr regnerisch, was aber zur Atmosphäre beitrug.
DE: Fast dachte ich schon die am 13.10.2025 verunfallte 756 006 wäre mir nie vor die Linse gefahren, dann fiel mir diese Aufnahme vom 21.07.2021 in die Hände. Nur kurz wird die vorabendliche Ruhe unterbrochen als 757 006-2 mit dem REX 823 in den Bahnhof Dobšinská ľadová jaskyňa einfährt. Die Sonne hatte sich leider schon wieder hingelegt (wie so oft wenn wir in jenem Urlaub in den Bergen waren). DIe lokbespannten Reisezüge auf dieser Strecke sind auch Geschichte, die Leistungen wurden von Triebwagen der Baureihe 861 übernommen.
EN: I almost thought that the 756 006, which has been a victim of the Roznava train collision on 13 October 2025, was never in front of my lense. Finally I came across this photo from 21 July 2021. The evening calm is only briefly interrupted when 757 006-2 arrives at Dobšinská ľadová jaskyňa station with REX 823 to Margecany. Unfortunately, the sun had already set (as it was so often the case when we were on holiday in the mountains that summer). Anyway, the loco-hauled through service are now gone on this line and replaced by class 861 DMU.

New Haven Railroad GE U25B locomotive # 2516 & another, lead a westbound manifest freight train toward tower SS38 at Stamford, Connecticut, 1968. You can really see the exhaust and radiator heat being generated on top of the locomotives. In this scene you can also plainly see the short blade semaphore signals. The I-95 highway overpass bridge is seen in the background.
Bob Hughes captured this image on film from his tower window.
With the snow-capped Cader Idris overlooking the scene, 97303 and 97304 “John Tiley” cross Bont-y-Bermo (Barmouth bridge) on the 6C70 07:58 Crewe Basford Hall to Harlech ballast train for track renewal work near Tŷ Gwyn.
I took these Photographs somewhere in the area of the Restored Depot in Hamlet North Carolina during a Weekend Trip to Hamlet, North Carolina sponsored by the Atlantic Coast Line & Seaboard Air Line Historical Society. We visited the Large CSX Hump Yard, Restored Hamlet Depot and several small Short Line Railroads in the Area such as the Laurinburg & Southern, the Aberdeen, Carolina & Western and the Aberdeen & Rockfish.
Unfortunately, I didn't take adequate Notes during this trip, so I cannot identify all of the Cities and Towns, where I took many of my Photographs. We probably traveled within about a 50 Mile Circle around Hamlet, North Carolina.
This Photograph shows at least four Laurinburg & Southern Locomotives (or parts of) parked on Tracks in a Railroad Yard. There is also Gulf & Ohio Locomotive Number Number 9525 in my Photograph'
I know we passed through the outskirts of Rockingham, North Carolina, because, I took a Photograph of the former NASCAR Race Track in Rockingham as we passed with our Vans.
You can find my Photograph of the Hamlet Depot in my Photostream at:

I believe the Depot is in Marks Creek Township in Richmond County?
New Haven Railroad diesel electric locomotive trio of FA-1 # 0420 & FB-1, plus another FA-1 is seen while leading a manifest freight train by the Hills Grove tower SS139 along the Shore Line route in Rhode Island, ca 1950's. Today this area is known a Hillsgrove. You may observe the mechanical pipe linkages extending out from the tower to operate switch turnouts and perhaps signals.
This photo scan along with others was provided to me from a friend and the photographers name is Mile Usenia. This is a modified, enhanced and cropped version of the original photo scan.

Deze dag stond in het teken van goederenvervoer bij de RTM. Diverse stoom en diesellocs reden goederentrams of personentrams met goederenwagens. Het weer was uitstekend en de trams weer schitterend.
This day was all about freight transport at the RTM. Various steam and diesel locomotives drove freight trams or passenger trams with freight wagons. The weather was excellent and the trams were again magnificent.
Dieser Tag stand im RTM ganz im Zeichen des Gütertransports. Verschiedene Dampf- und Diesellokomotiven trieben Güterstraßenbahnen bzw. Personenstraßenbahnen mit Güterwagen an. Das Wetter war ausgezeichnet und die Straßenbahnen waren wieder wunderschön.
Door Corona en familieomstandigheden, waren we niet in staat om bij Plandampf in het Werratal te zijn. Maar na zoveel jaar kruipt het bloed toch waar het niet gaan kan. Daarom besloten mijn vader, mijn oudste zoon en ik in de meivakantie naar het voormalige Oost-Duitsland af te reizen om daar te genieten van smalspoor stoom.
Als eerste bezochten we de Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, waar door werkzaamheden aan de Mandaubrücke in Zittau zelf, alleen het traject vanaf Zittau Vorstadt naar Jonsdorf/Oybin werd bereden. Daarnaast was na 68 jaar Bertsdorf weer 'Lokeinsatzstelle'. Een unieke gelegenheid dus.
Due to Corona and family circumstances, we were unable to join Plandampf in the Werratal. But after so many years, the blood creeps where it can't go. That is why my father, my eldest son and I decided to travel to the former East Germany during the May holidays, to enjoy narrow-gauge steam.
First we visited the Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, where due to work on the Mandaubrücke in Zittau itself, only the route from Zittau Vorstadt to Jonsdorf/Oybin was used. In addition, after 68 years Bertsdorf was again 'Lokeinsatzstelle'. So a unique opportunity.
Aufgrund von Corona und familiären Umständen konnten wir leider nicht bei Plandampf im Werratal sein. Aber nach so vielen Jahren kriecht das Blut dahin, wo es nicht hin kann. Deshalb haben mein Vater, mein ältester Sohn und ich beschlossen, in den Maiferien in die ehemaligen DDR zu reisen, um Schmalspurdampf zu genießen.
Zuerst besuchten wir die Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, wo aufgrund von Arbeiten an der Mandaubrücke in Zittau selbst, nur die Strecke von der Zittauer Vorstadt nach Jonsdorf/Oybin befahren wurde. Außerdem war Bertsdorf nach 68 Jahren wieder Lokeinsatzstelle. Also eine einmalige Gelegenheit.
In 2023 werd weer Terug naar Toen georganiseerd door de Veluwse Stoomtrein Maatschappij (VSM). Hoogtepunt dit jaar was het weer in dienst komen van de 41 241. Dat was duidelijk te merken aan de hoeveelheden toeschouwers en fotografen langs de lijn ; ) In actie kwamen naast de 41 241, ook de 44 1593, 50 307, 52 3879, 50 3654, 65 018, 23 071, 64 415, 2459, 2530 en de SSN 01 1075. Samen met mijn oudste zoon langs de lijn en op het depot doorgebracht. Het was schitterend weer; 's ochtends mist en later veel zon, maar daardoor helaas minder stoomontwikkeling. Weer een geslaagde dag uit.
n 2023, 'Terug naar Toen' was organized again by the Veluwse Stoomtrein Maatschappij (VSM). The highlight this year was the return to service of the 41 241. This was clearly noticeable from the numbers of spectators and photographers along the line ; ) In addition to the 41 241, the 44 1593, 50 307, 52 3879, 50 3654, 65 018, 23 071, 64 415, 2459, 2530 and the SSN 01 1075 were also in action. Spent along the line and at the depot with my eldest son. The weather was beautiful; mist in the morning and later a lot of sun, but unfortunately less steam development. Another successful day out.
Im Jahr 2023 wurde 'Zurück nach Damals' erneut vom Veluwse Stoomtrein Maatschappij (VSM) organisiert. Der Höhepunkt in diesem Jahr war die Wiederinbetriebnahme der 41 241.

New Haven Railroad DEY- 5 class ALCO S-2 locomotive 0600 is seen on a siding in Boston, ca 1950's. The switcher 600 was the first of the class of 22 Alco S-2 locomotives purchased in numbers 600 through 621. This switcher also appears to have a modified off center exhaust stack applied by the NHRR. The switcher still maintains pretty much the standard New Haven Railroad paint scheme instead of the McGinnis livery. The adjustable horizontal radiator shutters are clearly seen on this locomotive. This location is the Union Freight Railroad Yard in Boston. The yellow Fruit Growers Express refrigerator car sure has a list.

Main rail line connecting Kerala with Tamil Nadu runs through southern boundary of our University Campus. Both ways put together nearly 100 trains, passenger and goods included, pass through this on any day. Howling sound of diesel engines and honking of train waiting for signal is common throughout day and night.
Shot this from top of what we call "Main Building", the first building of this Univ (at that time it was a small college called Amrita Institute of Technology).
