translated to English: http://translate.google.com/translate?u ... l=de&tl=en Or, go to Google's translater page and past in the website then chose German to English. I tried it and it froze up part way into loading the page the first two times I tried it. http://translate.google.com/translate_t?hl=en# |

This site itself with the photos is not very descriptive – one could probably find more on other sites in German. Looks like this was a run on 11 October from Arnhem in Germany to Rotterdam, Holland with the German Railways passenger 2-6-2 23 076. (She would have been built around 1958.) They were apparently moving rather slowly at Gouda – which must be in Holland – and the photographer was getting set for a shot of the passing, high-speed TGV when the side-collision up ahead occurred. The excursion train had to go into emergency brake - note that the dust is still settling up ahead. After waiting for five hours, the train was able to reverse and return to Utrecht, Holland for the night. One of the additional comments states that the steam train was indeed very lucky to not be involved. Other shots were taken the following day in Rotterdam with other steamers making short shuttle moves. Bill Yoder in Moscow - your specialist for German and Russian =) |
