The 4-6-2 express train steamlocomotive 01 # 202 of the association "Pacific 01 202" from Lyss/Switzerland, was guest on the 13th steamlocomotive gathering in Dresden. On the right is not operational sister 01 # 137, owned by DB Museum, since 2005 on long term loan to the IG Bw Dresden-Altstadt. Between 1980 and 2000 it was operational historic locomotive ("Traditionslok") of Deutsche Reichsbahn/Deutsche Bundesbahn based in Dresden. The 01 # 202 was based in Dresden-Altstadt as well between 1937 and 1944, and was then running for the Deutsche Bundesbahn after world war II.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
