Last thursday I went over my traffic limit (helped someone set up a game server, uploaded 4 GB of maps in ten minutes, I'm allowed only 2 GB in 2 days), so I was pretty much offline until monday (except for the cases where I could hook into some WLAN). So instead of procrastinating here, I went out to stations, both ones I know well (Aachen, Cologne) and ones I haven't been to before or only passed through (Horrem, Stolberg, Düren) and took pictures of trains.

Now recently, I had to (and still have) test out my new GPS for my car, and for some reason that trips always take me to some place that looks interesting from a railroad point of view. Meaning more pictures accumulate. At the same time, I can't really find the time to uplad as many of them as I'd like.

This means I have a rather large backlog at the moment and am planning to actually shoot more. I should be able to upload much of that next week, though. Then, however, you should be prepared for quite a lot. I'm going back to the Harz mountains, and there's supposed to be a railway festival in Blankenburg, and I always wanted to see the Rübelandbahn, especially as diesel service there will end this year... So there might be a slight surge in images.
