Hello,
here are some recent pictures of my recent short trip to the south of Germany. The town of Kempten is a paradise for diesel freaks.

Five car train IC "Nebelhorn" was pulled by 218 156.

Here´s a look to the turntable and the service department

Still carrying "Dispolok"-Colours, a ER20 "Hercules" is parked next to the engine house.

Two Generations of diesel engines, ER20 Arriva/Alex leading late running Alex from Munich and a 218 class

Leaving...

The cafeteria coach still carrying the old colours

Unfortunately, there were no freight trains on a Saturday, so we went back towards Munich. Here is regional express with a former east German 143 131.

Shortly after that, overnight sleeper train "Hans Christian Andersen" to Copenhagen/Denmark was pulled in.

One of the couchette cars carried the name "Jan Kiepura"
My favourite coach was the RZD-sleeper to Moscow, never seen that before. In my eyes really exotic....

Then the dining car for the hungry guests.

And the engine, 120 141.

On the neighboring track, the fastest regional train in Germany.

And a double heading 218 class, leading the Inter City to Zurich/Switzerland.

So long,
Martin
