Notes

I personally liked my recent night shots, but apparently there’s no positive reaction if there aren’t any trains on them. Now, I could whine about that, or I could take night shots of trains. Which would be more fun?

So, my father, my new camera and of course me went to Wernigerode, to take pictures of steam engines in the rail yard there.

In total, there were six locomotives steaming. 99 7237 here had just come in and, after getting new coal, was being inspected, oiled and the like by it’s personnel. The single light is, by the way, a marker for single engines shunting, although I haven’t seen it used on normal gauge railways (even though they follow the same rules).
