On 19 February 1995, our steam locomotive 50 3682 was under steam for the first time in the Salzwedel depot after having undergone a general overhaul the year before. There were still some tests to be done. Here she is being positioned on the turntable.

30 years of Dampflokfreunde Salzwedel - Memories

Dear railway friends,

On May 4th and 5th, 2024 we will celebrate our 30th anniversary, the Salzwedel Steam Locomotive Friends, with you. In order to review these 30 years in pictures, we will take a little journey through time with today's monthly picture. We will surprise you with a new picture every Monday until the festival.

On 29 December 1994, 219 004 of Deutsche Bahn AG stood ready in the Salzwedel depot to haul passenger trains on the lines in the Altmark. The steam locomotives of the Dampflokfreunde Salzwedel (on the right) had been transferred to Salzwedel from the scap yard in Meyenburg almost two years earlier and were waiting to be refurbished.
