Homecomingby *shenanigan87

Photography / Transportation

103 113 arrives home on a sunny Pentecost Monday, crossing the famous Hohenzollern Bridge and entering Cologne Central Station.

As explained here, this locomotive was once a museum exhibit until being resurrected recently. From now on, it will pull the weekly historic InterCity to Flensburg, as well as TEE nostalgia trains. Her arrival wasn't a moment too soon, as 103 184 has been taken out of service due to worn wheelsets, leaving 103 235 to fend for herself. If a TEE special train coincided with the historic InterCity, other locomotives had to be found to haul it, as 235 can't be in two places at the same time. Now, however, we can rest assured that this train is firmly in 103-hands (or coupling hooks) for our viewing pleasure.

More pics can be found in my DSO post, as always.

Die 103er ist einfach noch die schönste aller E-Loks.

Wunderbar eingefangen!

Soma,
Thanks for the "poke." As it happens I'm on the road traveling and have taken a few extra days to chase trains and catch up a little on DevArt.
