German 2-10-0 42 159 "War Locomotive" |
Description: |
Class 42 "War Locomotive". The class in this case means how many replacable parts should the locomotive recieve some war damage. So 42 means 4200 different parts that can be replaced and that was important in wartime to be able to fix stuff quickly. |

My dad took this photo during his basic training at Fort Eustis VA. This a one of a kind beast. US Army brought all this German railroad equipment back from Germany after WWII for the sole reason to scrap it. This "V-8" was scrapped in mid-1952.

Herman Gehrings private train |
Description: |
All I can find on this German 3-car diesel train that was Herman Gehring's private train. I read where soldiers guarding this train to nowhere soon to be scrapped got a chance to look inside and there was a lot of stuff pretty much intact with some furniture. |
