Lokportrait der I K Nr.54 in Jöhstadt - 22.05.2010
Schon bei der Eröffnung der ersten sächsischen Schmalspurline im Jahr 1881 waren Lokomotiven dieses Typs im Einsatz. Bei der I K Nr.54 handelt es sich jedoch um einen Nachbau, der erst im Jahr 2009 erstmals öffentlich Züge gezogen hat.

Anläßlich von Sonderfahrten mit 99 582 durfte auch die ehemalige Trusebahnlok 99 4532, die von 1962 bis 1991 ausschließlich den Rangierdienst im Bw Zittau verrichtete, mal wieder Frischluft schnuppern. Die Lok befindet sich heute als technisches Denkmal in Obhut des Interessenverbandes der Zittauer Schmalspurbahnen im Lokschuppen in Bertsdorf und kann dort an den Tagen der offenen Tür auch besichtigt werden.
Nach der Wende gab es auch Leute, die die Lok gern wieder betriebsfähig aufgearbeitet gesehen hätten. Das macht aber aus gleich zwei Gründen keinen Sinn. 1. ist die Lok technisch verschlissen, eine betriebsfähige Aufarbeitung käme einem Neubau gleich und wird damit unbezahlbar. 2. stellt sich auch die Frage nach den Einsatzmöglichkeiten. Für den Zugdienst ins und im Zittauer Gebirge wäre die Lok zu schwach.
It is incredible how much interest this Great Steam Locomotive can generate on her reappearance in her Wartime livery of matt black. The interaction between the many people present and the Locomotive drew my attention. Built in 1923 she will be 100 years old next year

The Glenfinnan Viaduct is a railway viaduct on the West Highland Line at Glenfinnan, in the Lochaber district of north-western Scotland, built from 1897 to 1901. Located at the top of Loch Shiel in the West Scottish Highlands, the viaduct overlooks the Glenfinnan Monument and the waters of Loch Shiel. (Wikipedia)

Neujahrs-Sonderfahrt des Vereins Historische Eisenbahn Frankfurt
New Year's special trip by the Frankfurt Historical Railway Association
Op 23 april 2023 reed de stoomtrein van de Stoom Stichting Nederland weer langs Woerden. De trein was onderweg naar Den Bosch voor een rondrit door Nederland met als bestemming de bloemencorso in Haarlem. Hier zien we de trein, getrokken door de SSN 01 1075 stoomloc, net voor het viaduct van de A12 in de richting van Utrecht rijden vanuit Rotterdam.

Anläßlich des 50. Geburtstages der Rügener Neubau-VII K's war auch 99 771 aus Hainsberg als Gastlok auf die Insel Rügen angereist. Ihr Geburtstag war im Sommer 2002 im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes ins Wasser gefallen. Nur wenige Tage nach der Hochwasserkatastrophe im Weißeritztal sollte dort ihre Feier stattfinden!
Das Foto zeigt 99 771 als Vorspann einer Rügener VII K mit einem Regelzug in der Kreuzungsstelle Posewald, wo ein Sonderzug mit Altbau-VII K 99 735 überholt wurde - 30.05.2003
The Strathspey Railway operates from platform 3 of Network Rail's Aviemore railway station. Until 1998 the railway's southern terminus was Aviemore Speyside about 300 yards (270 m) further north. Aviemore Speyside is no longer in regular use, although its platform has been retained as a fallback in case of problems with access to the Network Rail station. Coaling of the steam locomotives is carried out at a facility constructed in 2014 on the site of the former Aviemore Speyside station building. Its signal box, which was formerly at Garve West and transported from there in 1986, was retained when the station itself shut. New features are gradually being brought into service at the Aviemore site controlled using traditional British Railways mechanical semaphore signalling.
From Aviemore, the line passes the four-road locomotive shed which was constructed by the Highland Railway in 1898. The original purpose of the shed was to house locomotives for the lines to Perth and Inverness (via Carrbridge and Forres). It was common for original Highland Railway engines to be allocated to the shed and in London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) days it housed Stanier Black Fives, Pickersgill Bogies (Caledonian Railway), Caley 439 tanks, Caley 812 classes, and Fairburn tanks. In British Railways days the shed was allocated the shed code '60B'. These days the engines that are in traffic on the Strathspey Railway still bear the 60B shedplate on their smokebox. The shed has a 60-foot (18 m) turntable, originally from Kyle of Lochalsh.
There is also a carriage maintenance shed which was erected and opened for use in 2005; this shed allows the railway's volunteers and staff to work on its fleet of coaches indoors. On the opposite side of the line is a three road carriage storage shed erected and opened in 2011; this allows the coaches to be stored under cover and protected from the weather.
The former engine crew hostel, called Spey Lodge, stands just to the north. This building was erected by the LMS during the Second World War to provide railway crews with a safe and cheap option for accommodation whilst rostered to work locally. The British Railways Staff Association For Scotland then took it on to provide holiday accommodation for railway staff and their families. It was saved by the Strathspey Railway Company during the 1970s and gradually the facilities have been upgraded by volunteers. Spey Lodge now fulfils its original role again, providing hostel accommodation for engine crews and other volunteers working on the railway.
After Spey Lodge, the railway passes the site of the new Aviemore Hospital then crosses Dalfaber level crossing, an Automatic Open Crossing, Locally Monitored (AOCL). This level crossing was not originally part of the railway, but was installed after the development of the Dalfaber Estate in the 1980s. After crossing the road and passing the Cairngorm Brewery the line climbs through Granish Moor. This heather moor affords views of Cairngorm Mountain and the line runs parallel to the Speyside Way, a popular walking and cycling route. Once into the forest at the north end of the moor, the line descends past Boat of Garten golf course and into the village of Boat of Garten itself.
Southern Pacific 34046 'Braunton' lays on a fine display of exhaust along the Cumbrian Coast and passes through Nethertown Station hauling 'The Lakelander' on the 31st of August 2024.
7 April 2025 - Gura Ștevioara, Maramureș, Romania
A steam train of the Vișeu de Sus Forestry Railway makes its way uphill near Gura Ștevioara. Although taken in early spring, on April 7, 2025, the scene still carries the deep silence and atmosphere of winter. The narrow-gauge line winds through the forests of Maramureș, where steam, smoke, and snow blend into a timeless journey.

This is another one of those images that jumped out while redoing my archives: a capture of one of three locomotives of the wonderfully nostalgic Jacobite trainwaiting for more passengers.
Happy Monochrome Monday!
Zoals in het plaatje van de Railjet al te zien is links achterin stond de Zillertalbahn 4 al klaar met de dagelijkse stoomtrein. Hierdoor werd er op het station van Schlitters-Bruck am Ziller uitgestapt en werd de trein opgewacht. Na niet al te lang wachten kwam de Zillertalbahn 4 om de hoek. Deze 103 jaar oude locomotief vertrok na passage van de reguliere trein weer uit Schlitters-Bruck am Ziller op zijn weg naar Aschau im Zillertal.

After the RailJet we saw the Zillertalbahn 4 ready to leave in Jenbach as daily steamtrain to Aschau im Zillertal. With this in mind we left the regular Zillertalbahn train at the third stop of the route, Schlitters-Bruck am Ziller. After a short time of waiting the 103 years old locomotive came around the corner. After passage of the regular train to Jenbach he left Schlitters-Bruck am Ziller on his way to Aschau.
