| Remarks: To the video: this is part 2 on May 22. 2010 and we are on the street bridge over the station of Neuenmarkt on the lower hillside. On the left side is the stationbuilding with the passengerplatforms. On the right side are storage tracks for freight trains to wait for helper engines during the time of steam engines. The roundhouse with turntable is on this side, too. In the roundhouse is today the German Steam Lokomotive Museum. In german language short DDM called. We can see two another dieselengines in historic paint. The bigger one in red and withe is 119 158 and a switch unit type V60. Please don't forget to take a look to part 3!
Here is in three parts the ultimate steam event in the last 25 years. On two days a total of 12 steam engines come to Neuenmarkt. This town is on lower end of the first mountain line in europe, called Schiefe Ebene, built between 1844 and 1848, 4,2 miles long and 2.3% heavy.
