Nacional de Mexico 2-8-0 No. 501Posted by: Steve Frost, European Editor on Mar 25, 2022 @ 17:03:17
Hmmm. When editing Brians note into the record I noticed that we show another record for 501 (69) also in Nacozari de Garcia which I assume is a duplicate entry. No entry for such a loco at Paredon right now. Perhaps someone with local knowledge could advise.

Nacional de Mexico 2-8-0 No. 501Posted by: Brian Garvin on Mar 25, 2022 @ 15:03:38
Houston we have a problem.. I show this loco as 69 but street view shows it as 501. But I have another 501 plinthed in Paredon, in Coahuila and there are recent photos of it. Help please!

Württembergische Staatsbahn 0-4-0T No. 88.7401(T.1005)Posted by: Brian Garvin on Mar 25, 2022 @ 14:03:05
This loco was never in DRG stock.

This locomotive having been restored to use is now located at Münsingen and used on the Schwäbische - Alb Bahn since ca. 2012.

This locomotive is now at Wittenberge where by the the photo is taken. It was noted there in May 2019.

DRG (Württembergische) 0-6-0WT No. 89.407(888)Posted by: Brian Garvin on Mar 25, 2022 @ 14:03:10
It is still at Heilbronn in a dismantled state. It still belongs to Stuttgart Gasworks.

(KPEV) 0-6-0WT No. 89.7077(1744)Posted by: Brian Garvin on Mar 25, 2022 @ 14:03:47
This is another case of confusion over identity. 89 7077 was at AW Schwerte as was 89 7531. The latter went to South Germany and was never in the North that was 89 7077. Both still exist with 89 7077 in Lübeck and 89 7531 at Heilbronn where it was noted in May 2019.

Humboldt 0-4-0T No. (3)Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Mar 25, 2022 @ 09:03:38
Originally Humboldt, Köln Werklok No. 3, later Kronprinz AG, Solingen-Ohlings, and in1958, for WLH Hattingen and Paper co. Kabel, Hagen. It was later, around 1967, working in Nidda for Hornitex GmbH, before in 1982, being obtained by Eisenbahnfreunde Wetterau, Bad Nauheim and given the ‘fictional’ number 98 111. It went to Essen in 1992.

Hafenbahn Köln-Frechen 0-6-0T+T No. 'Speyerbach' (6)Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Mar 25, 2022 @ 09:03:40

(KPEV) 0-6-0WT No. 89.7077(1744)Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Mar 25, 2022 @ 09:03:43
Bearing in mind the singular file image, my comment regarding ‘photos should be rephrased ‘little’ rather than ‘no’!

(KPEV) 0-6-0WT No. 89.7077(1744)Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Mar 25, 2022 @ 08:03:13
Originally kkStB Elberfeld No. 1744, later 6223 then, in 1924, as AW Lehtre No. 2, later 6002; as an internal work-horse! Following WW2 it was DB No. 89 6002, followed by No. 089 002-2 as a Werklok, being withdrawn in 1967. In 1972 it was displayed in a playground at Opladen-Lützenkirchen as No. 89 7531, later 89 7077 and from 1986 at MEP Paderborn, later to be purchased privately in Lübeck. There is no photographic evidence of it having been ‘steamed’ bearing it’s last two identities! This is the longest surviving example built by this constructor.

DRG (Württembergische) 0-6-0WT No. 89.407(888)Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Mar 25, 2022 @ 05:03:52
The locomotive succeeded into the DRG in 1925 as No. 89 407 but in 1936 was at the GES at Stuttgart-Gaisberg; possibly repaired by EUROVAPOR in 1968.and further working until at the gasworks until 1992. It was preserved at SEH, Heilbronn in it’s DRG identity in 2003 and was still here in 2006, though it does not now appear on their website and May have returned to Stauugart ?

Philip Holzmann was the builder in Clay Pit, Gehspitz where the locomotive worked as No. “Rbl 201”. In 1968 it was displayed in a playground at Obertshausen bei Offenbach, until going to the VVM museum, Aumühle, outside Hamburg in 1993.

It retired at the end of 1960 and the following year was displayed in a playground at Besigheim until the 1980s. In 1986 it went to the DRM in Frankfurt-am-Main as No. “1”.

Württembergische Staatsbahn 0-4-0T No. 88.7401(T.1005)Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Mar 25, 2022 @ 03:03:15
Originally Württembergische Staatsbahn No. T 1005, in 1921 it became Lauchertal “ROSA, T 1005” as it was in the early 1970s. In 1976 it was in the Museumseisenbahn Aschallenberg, and went in 1979 to the DDM for a couple of years before, in 1986, being re-located to Berlin. I have no record of it ever working for the DB (nor number) though, of course have been employed by the DRG during inter-war years ?

Sadly the ex London, Brighton & South Coast Railway A1X Class Terrier 0-6-0T No. 2678 "Knowle" will now not be visiting the Severn Valley Railway for their Spring Steam Gala due to needing some urgent maintenance to be carried out. But its hoped the locomotive will visit later in the year.

Sablière Pastre St Gemme 0-4-0T No. Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Mar 24, 2022 @ 09:03:11
As all of most other extant locomotives of this manufacturer appear to be listed as Heilbronn (Germany) perhaps it would make sense to do so with this file also ? or alternatively make all the examples KWStE (Heilbronn) ?

This was previously Kleinbahn Phillipsheim-Binsfeld No. 1 until summer 1965, then displayed from 1966 by Baufirma Schwartzkopf, Falkenstein until 1979 to a museum in Frankfurt-am-Main.
