Artist's Comments

I like going out hunting trains, or knowing in advance that something will come along, but nothing is as much fun as hearing a steam engine outside my window or, in this case, getting a call saying that there is a steam engine in Goslar station, jumping in the car and hoping to arrive before it departs again. Which turned out to be quite easy, actually. As of this writing the locomotive should still be standing there.

This unit, apparently named Braunschweig, seems to be vaguely related to the prussian T3, though I don't know it enough to know whether it's actually the same. Here, it had arrived with a train from Braunschweig (Brunswick in english), and was now parked besides a Silberling trainset. The tank car behind it, by the way, seems to be a make-shift water tender.

Sweet! Nice find and the shot looks great too. Love the loads of coal there.

Thank you! My parents actually found the train when they were bringing a package to the local post office, and then they called me.

Schick, sieht man auch nicht alle Tage :) Wobei hier in Lev ab und zu mal ein Sonderzug mit ner Dampflok von der AKE durchfahren müsste, den könnte ich vielleicht mal versuchen zu erwischen.
