Wow, truly one of most historically significant photos in the entire database. Thanks very much for sharing.

Wow, they're riding in a tender. Ich würde eher in einer kabüse sein!

The old tender on the rear of this train was to supply water to the train - the loco had not been detached!

Interesting to note the condition of the track and the lack of joints. Pretty good maintenance even in 45. I wonder if that's welded rail in use already or if it was rolled that long.
