01.07.2025: +++ Update +++ Second guest locomotive confirmed for the upcoming event +++

The guest list for our event next weekend is slowly filling up. Today we received the second firm confirmation, this time from Cargo Logistik Rail Service GmbH (CLR).
We are looking forward to the visit of diesel locomotive 1151, which is rather exotic on German tracks. It was built 60 years ago by the company Nydqvist & Holm Aktiebolag in Trollhättan, Sweden, for the Danish state railroad and was used by our northern neighbors for a long time. Since 1999, it has mainly been in service in Germany. The CLR has now been using it in front of freight and construction trains for more than twelve years, where it has proved its worth. The owners have restored it to its original color scheme of dark red with golden yellow decorative elements, just as it used to be in Denmark. Two large winged wheel symbols adorn the front of the locomotive.


We are still trying to secure further exhibits for the event, including a class 155 electric locomotive, although its appearance is not yet one hundred percent guaranteed because its operating schedule for next week has not yet been fully clarified. We will inform you as soon as we have more concrete information.
