Cogwheel steamlocomotive HG 2/3 # 6 "Weisshorn" of the Dampfbahn Furka Bergstrecke (DFB) on the warm-up run from Realp to the start of the rack section. When the driver saw the photographer beside the track, he opened up the throttle and made a impressive show, thank you! The 0-4-2 cogwheel locomotive was built by the SLM in 1902 for the Visp-Zermatt Railway (VZ) and has about 350 HP. In 1992, it was the first operational steamlocomotive on the Furka, when the line re-opened from Realp till Tiefenbach. The locomotive was then in blue color, according to the corporate identity of the DFB.
