During the Müngstener Brückenfest, or rather after we rode one of the steam trains, we went to the Müngsten Bridge with the help of Torsten's car. As we both had the same camera, and me having a tele, we decided that I'd try to get closeups of the trains while he'll try to get good shots of the bridge (with the train on it).
Our goal was of course to get a nice shot with the last steam train of the day going across. Needless to say, the train was delayed, and the steam engine was at the back of the train, making it a rather epic failure. So, I give you a shot that still has some sunlight in it. Here we see a class 628 DMU rolling across, the sight spoiled somewhat by those pesky leaves. This is the only kind of train the bridge sees nowadays, except for the special steam trains on occasions like the Brückenfest. What's funny though is that the sound of this little thing going across creates such an infernal noise that it sounds like, dunno, a dozen six axle diesels with flat spots or something.
And now, let's all pester Torsten to upload some of his shots!
Darn it, he just did upload something... Let's still pester him!
Na ja, ich persönlich war wenig begeistert, vor Allem wegen den ganzen Ästen, die da einem reinhängen. Diese Tour war ein typischer Fall von vielen Bildern, von denen mir aber kaum welche wirklich zusagten.
Aber das eine hier! Das ist sooo WOW (im Moment finde ich keine besseren Worte). Die Äste verdeutlichen die Tiefe. Grafisch simpel, farblich angenehm: das wirkt einfach!

I wish American rolling stock was painted red. Red is my favorite color.
