Hi Nick ,
Thank you for visiting!
I'm happy that you had a good look!!
Perhaps if it had been snowing, then certainly a Christmas card, but I was not so lucky in that direction this year.

Hi Erhard,
Your visit is much appreciated. Thank you!
I am so happy that you like the result.
I had not seen this loco before, and it was not at Wernigerode next morning, so maybe it comes from the south of the line?
Perhaps a good advert for coming to the Severn Valley railway for its night time running weekend in 2020!

Wow -that is lovely lighting on this iconic Brocken train Peter. I was once at Wernigerode too and indeed photographed the trains but never with such light as this. ⭐ Very well done.

Cheers, Herb

Hi Herb ,
Your visit is most welcome, especially giving such high praise. Thank you.
I'm pleased that you have enjoyed it!
This kind of photo is very rare, since you need to be there on a cold night when the trains are running, and the timetable doesn't give much opportunity for that. I was lucky that all the ingredients fell into place that evening!

Best Wishes,
Peter

My dear Füsun,

Thank you so much for visiting this scene of the locomotive leaving Schierke on a cold wet December evening. We can imagine all the people about to come down from a day on the mountain, possibly back to a warm hotel room, and tasty meal...

Love Peter
