Unstoppable

Description

The ground trembles as she roars past at 125mph, still among the world's most powerful locomotives, her beauty being an icon of the glorious past, when the TransEuropExpress was the real way of traveling. To see this mighty beast fly around the corner, packing ten thousand horsepowers in her streamlined six axle body, the proud metal emblem of the former federal railroad on the front...

Is just awesome.

Sorry for shooting it at the same place as I shot quite a few trains already, but this nearby spot is just ever so lovely for spur-of-the-moment photos. And with the 103 now hauling regular InterCity trains due to rolling stock shortages, where else to capture this magnificient machine, if not at this magnificient bend?
