Voordat vorige week zaterdag de AKE Rheingold voorbij kwam, kwam WLE nog even voorbij met de Ems-Isar-Express. Die zien we hier door Lingen komen en passeert de 4 fotografen op het viaduct.
Petkum liegt unmittelbar an der Ems und verfügt über einen kleinen Hafen mit einer kleinen Marina. Von dort verkehrt täglich die Fähre Ditzum–Petkum in das rheiderländische Dorf Ditzum.
Die Fähre Ditzum–Petkum (seltener auch Fähre Petkum–Ditzum) ist die einzige heute noch bestehende Fährverbindung über die Unterems in Niedersachsen.
Die beiden Orte liegen fast auf gleicher geografischer Länge an den gegenüberliegenden Ufern der Unterems unterhalb (westlich) des Emssperrwerks kurz vor der Mündung des Flusses in den Dollart.
The Ems is a river in northwestern Germany. It runs through the states of North Rhine-Westphalia and Lower Saxony, and discharges into the Dollart Bay which is part of the Wadden Sea.
Its total length is 371 kilometres (231 mi). The state border between the Lower Saxon area of East Friesland (Germany) and the province of Groningen (Netherlands).

On a cold and misty autumnal morning, Saturday 5th October 2002, the unmistakable rhythm of a three-cylinder Pacific is heard setting off from its station stop, disturbing the tranquillity of this exclusive spa town of Bad Ems, located in the wooded valley on the River Lahn. DR Pacific 03 1010-2 soon makes it presence known as it emerges through the mist, passing the town's east signal box, rounding the curve and heading on towards Limburg, the 08:08 Koblenz to Giessen passenger service on the occasion of the 'Westerwald Plandampf'. Pacific 03 1010 was built in 1940 in streamlined form, which was removed after the war. Under the DR 'Rekolok' programme, it received a new boiler and was converted to oil-firing in the 1970s and it saw out the end of DR steam on the Berlin-Stralsund line in 1980, after which it was converted back to coal-burning and moved to a new home at Halle, as a 'Traditionslok'.
