Thank you Nick

I am so pleased that you like it.
The railway staff were very friendly, and the hint for location came from the stationmaster!

Enjoy your week!

Best Wishes

Thank you Jaap,

certainly the German practice of painting the wheels red helps!!

What a wonderful capture my dear Peter!!

It looks there is an interesting bridge. I wonder about the two different constructions of this bridge. (right side and left side) Maybe they were built in different time...

A big YS from me!

Love Füsun

My dear Füsun,

Thank you so much for visiting this railway, and of course for the awards.
I think you are right about the bridges. The locomotive is on a swing bridge, which looks quite old. The concrete on the right hand bridge looks newer. I think that at some time the bridge over the road was re-designed to give extra height which is why the girders look barely strong enough to support this big locomotive.

Love Peter
