Thank You, Merle! Great Pick!
Am 9. Februar 1996 geht die Stromlinienlok 01 1102 auf Lastprobefahrt auf großer Runde. Meiningen, Eisenach, Neudietendorf, Arnstadt, Oberhof und zurück nach Meiningen. Geplant war die Zulassung für 150 km/h Höchstgeschwindigkeit. Zwischen Eisenach und Neudietendorf werden kurzeitig 167 km/h erreicht. Viel Spaß beim Anschauen.

On February 9, 1996 the streamlined locomotive 01 1102 goes on a load test drive on a large tour. Meiningen, Eisenach, Neudietendorf, Arnstadt, Oberhof and back to Meiningen. It was planned to be approved for a top speed of 150 km / h. Between Eisenach and Neudietendorf, 167 km / h are briefly reached. Have fun watching. More about streamlined locomotives here:

ReplyDeleteDo the Germans typically run their steam engines with their cylinder cocks always open? If not, what is the source of the steam appearing to come from the cylinders, near the bottom? It was visible in all the shots.
ReplyDeleteTypical American practice was to open the cylinder cocks on starting only, and just for a few piston strokes to clear out any condensed water from the bores. (Steam condenses well, but water in the bore would blow the cylinder heads off.)

ReplyDeleteDear The Old Guy: I think it is an appliance, maybe a generator, doing that up front. I will ask my experts and see what they think.
